Jack to knuckle position

[Roger Jolly]

Hi Julie,

                1mm with out the front rail punching starting to become 
depressed,  will give a generous amount of after touch.
The front rail punching, enters into the equation big time.   After touch 
within limits is a personal preference.
So no black and white answer to the question.

With a smile on my face:  Depends on which way the nap lies??????  mmmmmmmmmmmm

Regards Roger
