Default Red Dot vs Green Dot

Just putting out a feeler to see if anybody else has tried to switch to a Green Dot from a Red Dot and thoughts and opinions on it. I have tried a Green Dot and it seems easier and more clear indoors with low light but I have not made the switch permanent. I have only been shooting Bullseye for less than 2 years so this is still a new discipline for me and looking to see what the big boys are trying.
take care and be safe...

Try Tite Group,,,,,Less Flash

Just kidding, go with the red dot and lower the intensity low so the brightness isn't so busy, works for many of the guys down here.

I have a Bushnell red dot sight mounted on a Colt M4 .22 that is switchable between red and green. I find I usually use the red setting, just seems quicker to acquire to me, but I guess it's really just personal preference.
