most system dont use adjustable gas blocks, but they're one of the easier ways to tune a gas system and reduce felt recoil, especailly if you're sharing a lower with multiple calibers.
as i mentioned - having a carbine gassed 300 blackout i need to run the light carbine weight buffer and spring to successfully cycle subsonics. which from what i can tell the carbine buffer is very light for the 450bm. so i'm going to explore using the adjustable gas block i have as a budget option to tune it to that lower.
WRT gas block style - clamp on style gas blocks tend to have the tightest fit ... and therefore the least chance of a leak. Set screw models can be nice for alignment if your barrel is dimpled, but you often need to try several to find one that fits your barrel snug. The set screws are there to prevent movement - both rotation and sliding - more than they are to actually seal the gas system. If you want to use set screw block - some folks will tell you to actually get a block thats too tight and use a butterfly or barrel roll to open them up just so they fit for the tightest seal possible. meaning if you could - sort through the stack of the proper diameter ones for a block that's machined a few thousands under ... ie: a .750 diameter block that is closer to .745-.748 ID.
i like using this style as you can do the barrel roll or butterfly as shown with the same tool head and they're capable of accepting multiple grits of regular sandpaper cut into strips
if you can find the proper grit and diamater, a flap sander works great too
