What do you mean by "tune"? It's a preorder, and it hasn't been released. How would anybody know much about it except what information they provide us? I assume it's a standard 14mm thread pattern with notches to time it correctly.

Looks like the ports in it are threaded.  I'm guessing by "tune" they mean plug the ports with a set screw.

Seems.... unnecessary.

Yup. Gotta play with the little plugs.

Go about a minute in you can see what they mean.

I see this as a great way to burn time and ammo, and to tinker with something that should be plug and play.

The 5.56 version was already out, that is what I was referring to for tuning. Seems more appropriate for .308/7.62. I am not seeing that it is a pre-order?
