You could try casting using the lost wax method. Cast a couple of bullets in hard wax, cover them in fireclay but make a casting channel out the same wax, allow fireclay to dry and harden. Then melt the wax out in an oven and you now have a mould to cast into. To release the bullet just break the mould.


Short version; google Lost wax casting.
