The down side of a pistol length gas system with a three position gas block is that it is not safe to shoot a supersonic round with the gas system set on the subsonic position.
So ... take your choice ... lots of flexibility with loads but very good function with the three position gas block at the price of being VERY careful not to screw up versus limited flexibility in powder choice with the carbine position gas system.
I personally have a Paladin barrel and pistol length 3 position gas system. Was bought before the 300 BLK was introduced ... but I would still choose to do it that way because it works VERY well.

Well thought out response (insert little smiley face applauding here ).
