Mostly red. Some things are green. Mostly 'cuz that's what I could find in my local store... BI (before internet). Just got a new AR-15 this week. Ordered red dies. Also got a primer pocket reamer.. orange. I have to admit that the CS for both red and green have been totally useless for me. 'Cuz I've never needed anything from either.

Krylon makes a nice flat blue that matches the Cool Aid you guys could paint that red and green stuff so your benches would at least look better. Don

Started out with Green. Tried Red (didn't care for it). Ended up with Smurf Blue - VERY HAPPY! Still have Green, but almost never use it these days since that Blue works so wonderfully.

I have two different reds & two different greens. Let me tell you my experience.
-I bought the one red item, a press, on a Tuesday. On Wednesday a helicopter with their logo on it landed in my front yard. They had learned of my purchase from the distributor, sent two reps to my house, one a cs rep & the other a tech. They offered to help me set up the press and teach me how to use it, at no charge. Of course I accepted.
-My first green item, a scale, was off 1.3gr after I contracted a cold and sneezed on one end of the beam. They monitor every purchase and employ traveling follow-up cs reps to visit each purchaser to assist in any way necessary. My traveling rep arrived an hour after the incident and provided me with a new scale to replace the soiled one. He apologized and took me out for a steak dinner that evening.
-The second green purchase, a powder measure, had a speck of green paint .1mm in diameter on the inside of the transparent hopper at the bottom. The company had tracked the unit with the defective component to my LGS, located me, gave me a 50% rebate and sent a tech to replace the hopper. He also cleaned the bathroom fixtures while he was here.
-The other red item, a case trimmer, has been completely satisfactory after trimming around 900 cases. but I've had it for a week and haven't heard anything from the company. Do you think I should be concerned?

Mostly red here since I started with the classic turret kit. But I have one set of green dies and a green collet-type bullet puller - mounted in a red hand-press I bought second hand NIB for $15.
And like so many others I first thought this was a Red Green thread rather than a green red thread...

Started on green decades ago. Incorporated a bit of Orange. Then I drank some Blue Koolaid! Still have all of it.

I use those round green things in my big red thing and they work very well together.

Count me in. Still have and use my first ever reloading press-1978 RCBS Reloader Special. Have several Lee Handloading kits (use with plastic hammer), still have an original Lee 3 hole turret, finally upgraded to the 4 hole Lee Classic Cast Turret, Lyman 450 Sizer/Lubricator and all assortment of die sets! Only color I don't have is Blue, but I just don't shoot enough to actually NEED one. Otherwise, I'd probably own some of that color too! LOL

You know it's funny but all my BLUE stuff is Bair and Pacific, but I enjoy the Dillion catalog they send. Nice photo's.

Must be a special edition.
This club accepts any make model as long as you reload and do not tell us over and over how great something is,

Put me down for red. Old Pacific 0-7 press and powder measure and Lee dies.
I have some red stuff in two shades, I got some green stuff also in two shades, some orange, and some gray stuff. More RCBS green than anything else, BUT I also got some blue stuff. It don't mater much to me what color as long as it reloads ammo. Am I OK?
