Wolf no longer manufactures ammunition with a lacquer coating on the cartridge casing due to issues concerning lacquer-coated steel cartridges becoming stuck in the chamber of a firearm after firing, with difficulty in ejecting the spent cartridge afterwards. They use a new polymer coating now.
The only disadvantage to using steel cases is that steel is not as "elastic" as brass, and therefore does not create as efficient a gas seal when a round is fired. Should be fine for target/plinking ammo, just make sure your gun likes to eat it before buying a ton of it.
Basically an AK will like Wolf better than an AR because of the looser tolerances, but plenty of people use it out of ARs.
