I hated my Rudy's with the insert. When sideways to the sun I would get weird reflections between the lenses. Also with two layers to look through dusty conditions are twice as bad. I've been using prescription safety glasses which are great. Full wrap. Polycarbonate lenses. Designed to take an impact and they don't move a bit when I'm sweaty.

I bought a low end Kimber when I started shooting and won league within a year shooting factory loads. I hate cleaning. I spray it out and dump oil on it around 1500 rounds. Never a hiccup from it. I laugh at the guys with expensive guns who suck. Spend money on practicing that's what makes the difference.

To say it sucked is giving it too much credit. Sent it to Taurus to be worked on. Still sucked. Sold it for half what I bought it for and the felt bad that I'd cheated the kid. Very unreliable, very inaccurate, terrible trigger.

my counter if full mtm boxes. Every one I fill gets a chit on the paper hanging on the wall by my press

I check the load fairly often and have found clays consistent in my 550

Once was enough. Go out through the garage door to move the truck in for the night. After climbing into the truck hit the button to open the door (which is already open). My friend the garage door guy reminds me of this every time he sees me. Don't bother with safety glasses and just close your eyes. An eyelid provides no protection from a 3" staple. Guess who got to switch dominant eyes?
