Would pyrokinesis be an effective defense?

I've read comics in which someone with pyrokinetic powers was able to block bullets with a sheet of fire. I have three questions

1. How hot would the fire have to be to melt a bullet passing through it? (fire is about 1 inch/ 2.54 cm thick)
2. Would this be an effective defense, or just mitigate the fact that you still have a small lump of metal flying at you at a high velocity? (Would the aerodynamics change enough to matter) (The "Shield" is about 2 yards/ 1.8288 meters away from you)
3. Would there be a temperature that would make guns unusable?
4. Any other ideas for counter-gun pyrokinetic tricks are welcome.
