Guns and Wildfires
I have HEARD (no confirmation) of it happening with the old steel-core 7.62x39 ammo, which is mostly unavailable now. can't imagine sparks being struck by lead, copper jacketed, or even mild steel jacketed ammo. If it's soft enough to not damage a barrel, I wouldn't think it would strike sparks.
OTOH, a hardened steel bushhog blade WILL strike sparks on a rock sufficient to cause a fire. Guy burned a field here last week with that trick.
