I still can’t figure out that ruling.
I've read that steel ammo is banned because:
1. It penetrates backstops and does more damage to them.
2. It tends to ricochet more than brass ammo.
3. It sparks when it strikes objects and those sparks in an
gunpowder-laden atmosphere might cause a flash fire.
I don't know how true any of these reasons are...they're just the ones I
seen in web articles.
I don't like steel ammo or casings...they tend to be harder on firearm
actions and barrels than brass casings and lead ammo.
