None that I know of, I ran 20 nickel plated cases for a .270 WSM through a FLS die for a fella and had no dramas.
as a thought....... they look pretty but the only advantage I could see is that theyre easier to find when you drop them in the grass!!

I use nickel cases in my 22-250.
The only catch, if it is one is that every now and then i may crush the neck of one back in to the body when full length sizing. Most likley partly due to my fault for rushing, but i thing the nickel coating makes the case more rigid and more prone to crushing.
One fantastic bonus of nickel cases is that they are so easy to find if they are dropped when out spot lighting, due to the light reflection. I love them. :rifle:
