I still can’t figure out that ruling.

Sparks.

Sparks? Really? In a place with massive muzzle blasts.

Yes. Really. No reason to **** you.

What are the sparks going to do that a dragons breath of flame 6 feet
long won't do?

As previously mentioned, a spark (as a source of ignition) can be much
hotter than a flame.

It is still unclear what is going to catch on fire.

Like you said, probably nothing, but some range folks have seized on
that as a secondary reason. The potential for backstop damage and
ricochet risk are no doubt first and foremost. Also, they can
probably get more for their recycled lead as an additional economic
reason.
