I found over 100 rounds of 20 gauge Federal and Winchester low base #8 shot shells that have been sitting in my air conditioned house for 20 years. (they were new 20 years ago)
Boxes and shells look new, no signs of distress whatsoever.
Still good?
Toss it or shoot it?

They should still be fine.

if kept dry and such i would have no problem

If they look good they should go off !!! I had some from the late 60's that I ran through my Mossy 500 a year or so ago. No problem except for my shoulder !!

Go have some fun with them or save them for another 20 years and they may be a collectors item.

I just shot up a box that my grandfather had bought back in 1960. I had only two duds.

They were Winchester #4 high brass.
