I don't know about bullets, but laser beams seem to work: https://www.sci.news/physics/laser-guided-lightning-11572.html
Laser beams ionize particles in the air . Ionized particles are conductive. As they are lined up, they form a path.
Lightning laser gun when?
The shooter will cause himself to be struck. Easier ways to get electrocuted
Remote laser cannon.
Lass sentry?
