I am not talking about suspension, I am talking about round rod that comes in various sizes that is heavier than lead.

I doubt that casting lead with tungsten will work for reasons you already stated.

I have machined it in the rod form at work. I think it would make a great bullet.

The military has been putting tungsten carbide penetrators in AP bullets for years. I guess longer pieces of tungsten with a jacket would do it, but nevermind expansion. Maybe prefragmented tungsten rod would make things more interesting.

Very interesting. What do they look like form the nose? Big cavity I expect. Look forward to some test data.

Is that serrations down the side? Bonded? More info please.....

It is a XHPRBT.... It has 6 serrations full length. The lead has been sectioned in a X pattern. Basically a X punch cuts the core half way down before the bullet is formed. A small amount of lube gets left on the cuts. When the bullet is formed the cuts are pushed together and are barely noticeable. The hollow point looks like a bowl shape. He offers them stepped/dual diameter or standard.
