In this case, you are aware it could be written more simply, yes?
50 10-20/2 * * * root rsnapshot -q hourly
Merely mention the range (10-20) and show that you want it every two hours (/2). You could even add in an entirely different time like 1am like this:
50 1,10-20/2 * * * root rsnapshot -q hourly
It's simply amazing how flexible cron's time descriptors are.
