Would you accept a solid brass or copper bullet as a surrogate? The overall density in only a little more than a steel-cored copper bullet would be, especially the brass bullet. There are custom bullet makers who will make any shape we want as long as we don't run afoul about Federal restrictions on 'armor-piercing' ammunition. My thinking is that we can address both the Federal issue and the weight matching by using a soft brass and drilling a hollow point.
