It is fiocchi 9mm that I had loaded in a mag in my nightstand.  Looks like it got rusted sitting in there. Think it will be unsafe or harm my sig 226 in any way?

You use ball for HD?  Shoot that stuff and buy some quality hollowpoints.

At the time? Not to keep harping on you, but I guarantee that has been in your gun for longer than 7 months.

Actually, i got the gun in early june and the ammo shortly after. My apt gets humid as hell which I assume is what caused it. Ammo from the same batch stored in a pelican case is fine.

I'd run it in the tumbler for 30 mins.

You should get all your ammo undercoated at the dealer

You might try cleaning it a bit, and make sure you are wearing top notch eye protection , clean underwear, and dont shoot it alone.
