Usually they aren't. Lead, or lead in a copper shell (a "jacket") is the most common choice for bullets.

Bullets CAN be made of mild steel, usually also copper jacketed, and it's usually done because of concerns about the lead from the bullets causing pollution.

Mild steel is one of the less expensive replacement options for lead in bullets.
