Well get on it, man!

All you'd need to do is machine smaller titanium cores and bond a copper jacket to them. That should be really light. If you did it right, you should be able to make a bullet that is the same length as a standard bullet but weighs just barely 1/2 as much.

Maybe you could make one that's the dimensions of a standard 150gr .308 bullet but weighs 85 or 90gr. That would be sweet.
