It's simply easier to stay in your position and move your right hand to reload the gun. Less moving, less work, less getting your heart rate and breathing up. I know it doesn't sound like much but it adds up.
I was about 1/2 9's and 1/2 10's with my lever action daisy 853 in 2020-21 (190ish for 20 shots), with a PCP gun I was able to average about 197 for 20 shots in 2021-22

Thanks for explaining, stuff a non competitive shooter wouldn’t think about. The only time I ever use the Gamo is to pop a squirrel on the bird feeder or to take out a porcupine so the dog doesn’t get quilled. Never bench shot before, free hand only.
