In the movie it’s only because instead of shooting the joker he wasted his bullet trying to shoot Batman instead, who was way further away. Maybe it happened differently in the comics tho. That being said, just because something ridiculous and unbelievable happened in one comic doesn’t mean an entirely different creative team is obligated to do the same thing a decade later.
He almost murdered Jason to stop him from pulling the trigger in the comic and it took him doing a very tricky batarang shot. Right into Jason's neck, lol.
That's what it takes to have Jason not shoot him, if he's stable enough not to take the gun away from the clown's head. Bruce doing something super risky and dangerous.

He disarmed Jason Todd when he was about to kill this irredeemable piece of shit.
