Assuming that the rings are the correct size, installed in the proper order and manner, and that there is not a lot of scoring on the cylinder walls, you may have a stuck ring. Did you oil the grooves first? Also, double-check the timing too and make sure the valves move freely and seat completely.

If the ring gaps are all lined up then air can leak past the pistons. Stuck valves can cause a compression leak too. Also, make sure you didn't break a ring while installing it.
