while he's right about the cylinder pressure actually putting the loading on the rings, if you have TOO much pressure on a fesh hone, it will not only seat the ring, but chew away too much
if you chew away too much of the ring, you open up the end-gap too much, allowing for MORE blowby
there is really no one best method for it... it really depends on the type of rings used and the type of hone
