Does the wolf ammo with steel cases wear out your extractor faster than brass cased ammo?
A friend of mine will not use steel cased ammo even though its a lot cheaper for plinking.
Ive used it in my guns with no ill affect.
I now have an ar-15 and was going to buy a bulk load of wolf .223, but my friend said it would wear it out faster!!!!
Any comments on this.:(

Even if it does wear out your extractor faster you'll save more than enough money shooting wolf to replace it.

Yes. It will wear your gun out faster. You'll be shooting it a hell of a lot more than your buddy.

I run Wolf thru everything.  Have one particular upper with 11k Wolf thru it and nothing broken.  I've had bolts crack and lugs broken shooting brass ammo but I don't blame the ammo.
