If you can hold 10 volts at 300 amps draw for 15 seconds your battery should be physically good internally. But, it takes several hours of normal run time to fully charge a battery. Figure 100 ampere hour battery takes 10 hours at 10 amp charge rate to fully charge, or 1 amp charge for 100 hours. I suggest you put your 10 amp charger on until voltage reaches 14.5 volts, look in all cells if you can and they should all be gassing slightly. I personally would then finish it off with a slower charger like 4 or 6 amps again looking for that 14.5 volts or very close to that. If it does not pass that test battery is not reliable.
