You could talk to a jewelry store and commission one, of course, it would cost a little bit of money.

Silver is definitely harder than lead. There are not too many metals that are softer than lead. But lead is one of the heaviest.

I think Garrett makes his bullets out of a lead-silver alloy. It makes for a hard lead bullet that is not brittle.
