Starting May 10, people cannot use fireworks, exploding targets, steel ammunition, among other restrictions. Shooting at steel targets or burning explosive materials are also prohibited.
You can read the order here. The actual wording in the order prohibits "steel component ammunition". From other sources, this appears to include ammo using bullets with a steel core or bi-metal jackets. But it is so vague that it might include ammo using steel cases (although I don't know why it should since the concern is sparks causing a fire). In fact, considering that all primers manufactured today use steel, this order is vague enough that a dishonest U.S. attorney could interpret it as completely banning the shooting of anything but rimfire ammunition or muzzle loading firearms.
