Depleted Uranium bullets has been use as anti personal. Just ask the dead Iraqi insurgents and Talibans in Afghanistan.

As far as I know no depleted uranium bullets are made for small arms.

In movie logic, depleted uranium is more useful than lead because it is heavier (I.E. more accurate, powerful). I'd assume they'd believe the rounds to be coated in lead to block out radiation or something dumb like that.
