| Stan, that's a lot of help. I had a feeling I could do something like this but kept dancing around without success.
Interesting that you can refer to the list by name without saying 'whose name is "Blog Post Checklist"'. Now what I would have expected.
Here, if I have all 20 checked, it takes about 6 seconds to uncheck them. But it's still a whole lot faster than it was when I did it "my way."

Hi Christian,
I created a list of 20 items and ran your script, which took just over 16 seconds. I think some of the slowness is due to UI animation.
Rather than looping through the items, the following code will change them all simultaneously. Run time drops to about 2.5 seconds.
tell application "Reminders" set completed of (reminders of list "Blog Post Checklist" whose completed is true) to false
HTH, Stan C.
