I remember that too. I went from low Expert, to high Expert.

I might be mistaken, but I think the qual scores for Expert, Sharpshooter, and Marksman were revised, because scores were so much better across the board. (I know this was the case when we went from the 45 to the 9mm pistol, not 100% sure on the rifle)
