Landing a light twin

Hi everyone,

I’m transitioning from landing a Cessna 172 to a Cessna 310 light twin, and I have a question about the landing technique.

When I aim to touch down at the same spot, I notice I need to reduce power much earlier in the Cessna 310 than in the Cessna 172. Is this due to the variable pitch propellers, or is it related to the increased momentum from the additional engine, which might cause a longer floating distance?

Thanks in advance for helping!
