There are several rounds the military uses for small arms. 50 BMG and 5.56 NATO both have tungsten versions, though they are expensive, and hard for non-military to buy (when found, $50/rnd). Even the military does not normally issue them due to the cost, which is ~2-10x of a standard lead+steel round.
