Why a 2-Red 1-Yellow setup instead of a 3-red? The loss of 25% of the multiplier is pretty significant, though we don't fully understand the new weight mechanics.

Anyway, between the ones you provide, the Cut-In has less variance (since enemies only roll Armor once against it), the double attack has a slightly higher maximum, but dramatically lower minimum damage if the enemy rolls high for armor against both shots.

Really, the double attack is the gambler's setup: if you get lucky, your payoff is bigger, especially if one of your double attacks is a crit. If you just want to make sure you do damage to it, the Cut-In won't miss and better minimum damage.
