That's a great observation. I saw this in another pistol discipline as well; the best ones under the crunch (or when at a Master-class match where everyone was handed identical stock guns) were those that had cut their teeth on Bullseye. In an environment where your time gets added to for misses, accuracy still counts. Two things my coach said to me at the time about the course of fire stuck with me: "You can't miss fast enough to win" and "Shoot it clean; you'll get faster when you get bored."

Again, congrats.
