RCBS Green Machine on Fleabay

[PB234]

It is not mine. Just remember someone here was looking for one and this one is supposedly new, never used. I can't imagine trying to make it work, but for the person who was looking: http://www.ebay.com/itm/RCBS-The-Green-Machine-38-357-/230845171478?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item35bf71c716

Thats a headache looking for a home. Green machines never had a good rep

I took a green machine home once on a try before buy basis. I tried it and took it back the next day. What an engneering nightmare. Avoid at all cost.

I have one in 45ACP. It took a little reengineering, but it works great now, as good as my Dillon. Bad thing is, that it is impractical to change calibers, so what you got is it. I believe they were around $375 new, back in the 80's. RCBS still carries some parts for it. Considering what else is available today for similar cost, the asking price is not a good deal.

They are not so bad, but you have to be the right personality type, that's for sure.
One needs the patience of a saint(my personal struggle) and above all, the drive to never lose and never back down.
That's me, and I was not going to be beat by a stupid green hunk of iron. A few Lee and Dillon parts, and that sucker was producing some really nice 38 spc loads.


Would I buy one? Hell no, unless it was really inexpensive.

A customer gave this to me since he had no use for it. It was left to him by a friend(some friend,lol) and since there were already 3 dillons and a rock chucker on his bench, it was useless.
