Will it come out in 300 BO?

:yes: I would sooo buy one. Be nice if they just came out with a barrel assembly to convert. I really is just a barrel change, and the Rdb has adjustable gas already.

I waiting for the Tavor in 300 BO too. I know they have a conversion kit, but it's more than $800 added to a $2000 gun. I don't want a bull pup with two barrels, I want one gun with one barrel.

Finally got to spend some time with the RDB today. Roughed in the sights on it.
One very important thing is to always error on the side of too much gas than too little with the adjustments. I found that if it did not have enough gas to cycle completely, it EATS your brass. I found that putting a suppressor on it I could dial back the gas about 6 clicks more closed than without it.

So a quick follow up on that last range day with the RDB. I was cleaning the rangebag finally and found the trashed brass from dialing in the gas std. Once it is dialed the gun ran like a top.

This is what happens when you under gas the gun so it will not hold back/eject. Far right are a case sep failure unrelated to the gun, but provided a great learning moment with a new weapon.

The gun feeds with authority for sure, you can see how it melded the new round to the top half of the failed case. in the low light at range I could not see the seam well and though the bullet had been forced back in the case at 1st.

The gun has a very unique recoil cycle to it. you can feel the bolt mechanism and spring working on each cycle. It is very Noticable when it locks back on empty or if there is a feed issue as the cycle sequence changes substantially. The gun talks to you without you have to see something is off or find out by pulling trigger and no bang.
