The 2010 NRA National Action Pistol Championship will take place in Columbia, MO, May 26-29.
The 2010 NRA Bianchi Cup will offer an Open, Metallic and Production Division Championship Awards.
This event draws shooters from all over the world. In 2009, international competitors haled from Australia, Canada, Germany, Italy, Japan, New Zealand, Netherlands, Switzerland, United Arab Emirates and the United States.
A newcomer's orientation will be held at the Competitor's meeting. Former & current Champions as well as the Match Staff will be in attendance to help new shooters in their first attempt at the NRA Bianchi Cup.
Class awards are awarded to various categories to include high law enforcement, high woman, high junior, high international, high newcomer, high senior, high service, high semi-auto, high revolver, and Aggregate.
We re-instituted a few measures to lower entry fee cost. One was to "bring a buddy". If a competitor were to bring a friend who had never competed at the NRA Bianchi Cup, both competitors would have a reduced entry fee. We also offer reduced fees Juniors, Production Firearms, Active Duty Military and those that register early.
The NRA Bianchi Cup is a combination of Speed and Accuracy. Shooting at stationary and moving targets. It all starts with an Interest and the Adventure to try this shooting sport.

BIANCHI BITS & BULLETS
The event originated in 1979, by former police officer John Bianchi of holster maker Bianchi International, as a Law Enforcement Training match.
The Course of Fire consists of four separate matches:
- The Practical Event: From the appropriate shooting line, the shooter fires at distances from 10 yards to 50 yards under varying time limits.
- The Barricade Event: From within shooting boxes and behind barricades, a shooter fires at targets on either side of the barricade at different distances and under varying time limits.
- The Falling Plate Event: From the appropriate shooting line, the shooter fires at 8 inch round steel plates arranged in banks of six at distances from 10 to 25 yards under varying time limits.
- The Moving Target Event: From within shooting boxes at distances ranging from 10 to 25 yards, the shooter fires at a target moving from left to right with the target being exposed for only 6 seconds
Competitors shoot from both standing and prone positions and are also required to shoot with both strong and weak hands at various stages. | |
