The touch hole lines up perfectly. Don't look at the whole silver touch hole liner to sit above the pan. The tiny hole in the liner should line up in the recessed channel of the primer pan (it looks like a little valley) this way when you fill that channel with powder, it's even with the flash hole, and the fire burns through that hole...

Okay, everybody who is surprised by this response from a company that makes inlines, say "AYE!".

I'm so glad I know now that the proper way to set up a flintlock is to bury the flash hole in the bottom of the pan and fill the pan with powder! What was I thinking?!?!?! :shake:
Well, I guess if you like half-second delays between pulling the trigger and the gun actually firing, this is sound advice. They must be better shooters than I am.
I too am glad you didn't send the rifle back. You'd have been way more ****** off than you probably are now! :redthumb:
