I understand the worries of butting a ring,my point is it doesn't make sense to open up the second ring gap to let excess pressure past it.If a guy has that big of an issue with combustion gasses getting by the first ring,the gap is probably too loose to begin with.
I'm not saying my way is any better than anybody else's,just the way I do things.
I studied the pro's and cons of both ways,this is just my preference.
