Currently when the timer reaches 10 sec for a Blood Beast to spawn I approach the platform and lay down a frost trap. When they spawn I have a macro
/target Blood Beast
/cast Distracting Shot
/cast Disengage
I then unload a concussive shot and go into my normal rotation. This works great on 25 but I am honestly having problems on 10.
Nix the macro, I highly suggest you don't use anything like that. And why are you using concussive shot first? That's what the frost trap is for.
Generally I save my instant CD shots (if I'm one of the only ranged dps) for Saurfang. I run up and place a frost trap and disengage to get some range. Then I proceed to unload my shots one right after each other. If they get close, you can then use conc shot and move back a bit. Your burst should be enough to kill them if someone else is somewhat helping you. If not you always got feign death and hopefully it moves away from you long enough for you to kill it.
Don't waste the initial shot CD's on distracting shot or conc shot, use those for your initial dps burst. Your damage should be enough that you gain aggro. If you use the other 2 shots, it's like taunt shot, slow shot, then your dps shots. Nix the taunt shot as your burst dps should give you initial aggro. And nix the conc shot because that's what the trap is for. The blood beasts are generally dead before they get to me.

It doesn't matter what you hit them with... they die in about 10 seconds.
They would die in 13 seconds if you wasted your first two shots on effects you don't need.

Honestly I think it severely depends on your raid comp too. My 10man team had a moonkin so he would root one add while frost trap/frost shock/earthbind was used to make sure the other one couldn't get anywhere, then they were just nuked down, it really is that simple.
As for the whole disengaging off the platform thing...you may not be able to do that but back when my previous guild was progressing on saurfang (ICC had just been released at the time) we had a hunter who used disengage and ended up reseting the encounter, saurfang was nearly dead too...

If you are struggling, ask the tanks to taunt the beasts back when they are about half way to you?
You can also MD someone across the room. Fire a few shots, get the aggro from the tank, then MD fire some more, feign and then finish it.
