A much better way to guage your leg strength is by doing full squats.

If you can bench press more than you can squat you should be ashamed.

I actually agree.  For all we know, your 2 sets of 10 could have been with a very small range of motion, which is very common with people trying to leg press as much as possible and not doing squats.

instead of wondering if it is a decent lift compared to other people, look at your lift now, and what it was when you started, or if you just started, compare a few months down.  there will always be those stronger then you, and there will always be those weaker then you, so it is all relative.
