For all you know, the mage can redirect the bullet to somewhere less convenient, like the sharpshooter's head, with a special reflect spell.

Bullets are useless against a sufficiently powerful flame cloak anyway, since they will just vaporize. Also, a sufficiently powerful flesh spell probably stops even APDSFS rounds.

Magic in it's entirety is game breaking, you just can't equate technology with magic, because tech is limited by many factors, magic is limited by only imagination (and maybe a magicka pool)

I love playing the devil's advocate.

None of that is true, flesh spells and flame cloaks don't even entirely protect against arrows. And besides Akotosh, a divine that can't help, no one, even in lore, has weaved a spell powerful enough to bend time and space. Reflect spells don't last long aren't 100% and as of the Fourth Era appear to have been lost.
