Technically, it would be Improved Reflect which only works with Blasters, since that's what you use to redirect a shot. The base Reflect talent can easily stop a bullet (vaporizing it).

The picture of a jedi diverting a rocket/missile in Keeping the Peace was described by Max Brooke as narrative use of (edit:improved) reflect. You arent limited to just energy weapons, its down a GMs call what they will allow.

Not to derail things, but Reflect applies specifically only to energy weapons like blasters. So it won't be much good against blocks of debris.

That is actually not true, reflect works against slugthrowers as well. It still not good against blocks of debris, which imho it should, because we see countless examples in canon of lightsaber defenses against flying objects.

What does not work on slug throwers is the improved reflect talent. This requires energy bolts. At least with lightsabers. If we go wonder woman style, I totally would allow bullets to be reflected as well.
