China ended their campaign at the Hyderabad University Shooting range with six gold, two silver and two bronze ahead of India, who finished with 3-6-2 for a total of 11 medals.
China were in line for a golden double but Hak upset both the Chinese in the final rounds. The Chinese were leading the pack by a four-point margin but Hak came back to win the gold as both his challengers faded away in the final.
Liu, who had a four-point advantage, fared miserably, accumulating only 86.7 points as against the Korean's 97.3 in the final. Haiping scored 90.6 in the final to claim silver.
In 10m air pistol for women, Ying was away ahead in both the qualification and finals. She shot 388 out of 400 in the qualification and 98.9 in the final.
