I posted pics from another forum some time ago, ammunition that looked good on the outside of the cartridge but which had become so moisture contaminated inside that the brass had changed color [green, corrosion] and begun to disintegrate...Definitely unsafe to shoot...

I would tend to think that ammunition that was manufactured by FN, in Belgium, to military standards, would probably be still safe to shoot... strictly IMHO. The problem is that the ammo is old enough, that it probably has corrosive primers... so I wouldn't shoot it in anything that I wasn't able to thoroughly clean afterward, and in short order.
