Revenge of the SiXth solution: 8 symmetrically placed 5-letter words contain an X-tra letter in the third position, where you need to set your "crosshairs":
11A Cub Scout rank = TIER
13A Sharp, like vinegar = ACID
25A Treat a superior as some do = DEFY
28A They thrive in Alaskan waters = REDS (salmon)
40A Competitor among currency = RIAL
43A Give in to gravity = DROP
58A Reason for litigation = CASE
60A What leads to regret = HATE

Letters eliminated spell GRIEVOUS!

Thanks to everyone who gave this puzzle a "shot"!
