OP,
SLR recommends the set-screw model for handguards that are 1.3" ID. Their clamping style blocks need more ID.
SLR Sentry can be adjusted from the front with a 2mm ball driver and are reputable. No need to spend the extra dollars on a titanium version ($202) unless every last gram is critical to the build. The 4140 steel at $135 works just as well.
If you are using iron sights with those light-weight small diameter handguards be careful of flex. If you can see movement when you pinch the barrel and the handguard at the muzzle end then imagine what that will do to your zero.
