Default ERNICRMO-10 alloy, can join any ferrous anything?

A couple of 30 lb spools of ERNICRMO-10 accidentally followed me home.

It is a alloy of 60% nickel, 21% chrome, 13% molybdenum.

After reading the above pdf, and some other things, it seems that this
mig wire can join pretty much anything ferrous to anything ferrous, or
inconel, right? Say, stainless to high carbon, high carbon to inconel,
high to low carbon, etc? So if I have two pieces and I have no clue, I
can reliably weld them with this mig wire?

Just how nasty is it to health, as far as fumes are concerned?

Inconel 625 (ERNiCrMo-3) is the alloy usually considered the best
choice for joining unidentified and/or dissimilar ferrous and nickel
based metals, but I would think 622 would work in most cases.

Special Metals has a good brochure on joining nickel alloys, which
includes a good table of recommended rods for dissimilar metals.

Very nice manual, thanks
