Memorial Day weekend is here, and that means it is Bianchi Cup time. This year's match will conclude this afternoon with two shooters, Bruce Piatt and Carl Bernosky, already garnering perfect 1920 scores. Piatt has a four-X lead over Bernosky.

Additionally, there are four open division shooters with perfect 1440 scores after firing three events, facing the difficult Moving Target event last at 1:00 p.m. These shooters are 2018 Bianchi champion Adam Sokolowski, 18-time champion Doug Koenig, Troy Mattheyer and Takumi Suzuki (Japan). Currently, Sokolowski holds a three-X lead over Koenig.

One of these six shooters will be the 2019 NRA Bianchi Cup champion. Check back with SSUSA often for the latest match updates. Also, view live scoring updates at this link: http://rl-web.nra.org/home/matchscores.
