I've given a lot of rusty old paper ammo a try. I do clean the corrosion off and am careful to check the bores after shooting. I've had a few paper hulls separate entirely and go out, leaving the base in the chamber and have had a lot of base brass split longitudinally and even all the way around the extractor rim fold, but it's amazing what will still go boom and kill birds.
