My B-Gap screw however is almost all the way out, strange, did you have a different derailleur hanger, so weird.
OK, it's hard to photograph, but I've looked closely and tried to capture it. Pics below, but here's what I see:

1. The actual gap looks right to me, right around 15mm. This is a LOT more gap than you'd have on a standard road bike RD, but it's what the SRAM manual specs.

2. The b screw is VERY long and it's definitely most of the way out. I didn't notice this when I adjusted it, because I was able to get the gap right with play left to go both in or out with the screw, but it's true that to get to 15mm you have to screw it way out. That said, there are still 3 to 5 threads showing on the screw on the other side, so I could screw this out even further, at least a couple more turns.
