You can shoot brass, then steel, but not the other way around.
Basically, the steel does not expand the way brass does in the chamber, so you get some carbon buildup in between the chamber walls and the case. This isn't a problem until you throw in a brass case that expands more than the steel case and gets "stuck" in between the carbon and the chamber wall.
Basically, it's good policy to only shoot one or the other, and clean your shit after every shooting session.
