Isn’t that just the killing curse with extra steps? Magic is a lot harder to evade.

During the Dumbledore’s army arc, I think book 5. I don’t really care enough to go back and find the quote, but it was a fairly significant plot point in the resistance movement.
I hate JKR too, but she literally did. Wizard clothes are enchanted with protego charms which turn away any mundane attacks, and wizards really have no reason to fear muggles. During the witch trials some would allow themselves to be burned at the stake because they liked how the flames tickle. It’s very much a ‘magic must defeat magic’ setting.
In the books it explains that wizard robes have charms against physical attacks woven into the threads. They’re wearing full body bulletproof vests.
It wouldn’t even get through a wizard’s robes, they’re enchanted with protego charms (at least according to the books)
I think we just don’t like guns.
