CMP Bianchi Cup
The Bianchi cup International Pistol Championship was first held in 1979. It is the second longest running action-pistol championship in the World. The CMP will host the event for the first year in 2023 at the Green Valley Rifle & Pistol Club, Missouri, from May 23-26. The Bianchi cup has been dubbed the world’s most prestigious handgun tournament. The Bianchi Cup is considered the world’s most difficult pistol championship due to the high level of accuracy required at each stage.
At different stages, competitors are required to shoot both with their strong and weak hand. The Bianchi Cup has no make-up shots, which makes it even more difficult.
