Congrats on a fine placing. It's a good feeling, eh? El Prez notwithstanding, your tempo seemed better, and you seemed more relaxed.

You need to continue to work hard on making your shots, though, even if it means slowing down. Looks like you added 20% to your raw time, which is still twice what it should be, and that's based on an inflated raw time because of a botched 1st stage.

I'll also caution you against gauging yourself as a shooter by your placing in matches, grasshopper. For one thing, it's largely beyond your control - a bunch of masters could've showed up and kicked your butt with your same performance. Likewise, had the guy who won not showed up, you would've won. Yet you're the same shooter either way. You can't control who shows up at matches, but becoming a better shooter is something you control, so that's the only thing worth concerning yourself with. Do that and your classification and match results will take care of themselves.
