The steel is harder for the extractor to grab onto, and some cartridges being tougher to extract probably adds up to that, but from everything I get, it's a very subtle wear and the cost savings of shooting steelcase ammo is typically more than enough to cover the costs of a replacement extractor if it actually breaks.
I don't think there's that many people operating like that, but I think it paints a picture of how little difference it makes on the extractor lifespan point, and you should judge whether or not to shoot steelcase on other factors instead (like if it works properly in your gun or if you're satisfied with the typically middling accuracy).

You mean if a range checks your ammo with a magnet and tells you to fuck off if it sticks?
Try finding an outdoor place to shoot instead, it's better for your health anyway.

I don't want to financially support Turkey either, but if they offer decent ammo for cheap, that's a hard deal to pass in this economy.
