    Use them, they are fine, i have shot some more damaged and they just puff.
    Shot shells are more tolerant than metalic and u will be fine.
    Plus they are high brass and the "worst one" was only corroded on one side, which is a classic pattern you see when stored in a cardboard box that got wet. If there is an issue, the action won't lock up. These are not that bad and a couple seconds with steel wool would knock that stuff right off.

    Shotguns are not precision machines.

    Personally I would shoot them. I rabbit hunt a lot and when shells get a little wet they do that. If I didnt shoot some green brass shells every once in a while, I wouldnt shoot at all. I probably have a couple hundred of them laying around my house at all times, and they shoot the same as brand new ones.
