A: Thanks for reaching out, Deleterious Jackson! Like the product description says, Tula’s steel cases are plated with zinc. When we refer to ammo as "nonmagnetic," we're only describing its projectiles. This is to say that the bullet will not attract a magnet. Many ranges prohibit projectiles which contain steel, as such bullets pose a higher risk of (a) creating sparks, (b) deflecting shrapnel back toward the firing line and (c) damaging the range's backdrop. Tula typically loads magnetic projectiles, which makes this ammo a great way to comply with certain ranges' policies while still taking advantage of the Russian manufacturer's economical steel cases.
