Well I just have to many things rusting around. (see http://www.mdshooters.com/showthread.php?t=89420 and I'm expecting a dehumidifier to arrive today...)
I took a look at some Winchester "military" 00 buck I bought a couple of years ago and the hulls are developing small spots of rust. I'm not sure if it's surface or deeper. Some of it looks like it can be scrubbed off but I'd be afraid of setting off the primer in my hand.
Research (I mean google ) suggests that as long as the hull is still in one piece it should generally be okay (for targets at least) because the pressure generated by shotshells is not as hot as pistols and especially rifles.
So what do ya'll think?
Sorry I do not have pics now but I can get some when I get home later.
