Height for bullseye

I just built the back stop for my 10 meter pistol basement range. It is adjustable in height in 2" increments.
I currently have it set for the bulls eye to be at my eye level. But if there is a specified standard I would rather set it to that height.
Does anyone know the specs?
Thanks.

The centre of the target should be 1.4m (+/- 50mm) above the level of the firing point.

Thanks for the answer.
OK. I have it too high. It should be 4' 7".
Where do I go to see all these regulations so that I don't have to keep asking here?

It's available as a
7.7Mb PDF or a
7.12Mb ZIP.
Most of the target, range, 10m & 50m rules are in section 6 although you should also look at section 7 for other rifle rules and section 8 for other pistol rules.

I calculated (roughly) 4.7 feet. I should have written 4.7, but I wrote 4' 7".
I've had it at the right height all along.
(No need to repeat yourself, however.)

You were actually correct at 4'7" (within an eighth of an inch) which is 55".
I can't see why hill987 was (seemingly) correcting you.

It's actually 1.4m (1400mm) - don't convert! - use metric
