Bianchi Cup Julie Golob Gold Silver

World Champion shooter Julie Golob took home the Women’s Team Gold Medal and was the Women’s Silver Medalist at the 2022 Bianchi Cup. She placed 20th Overall in the Open Division.

The Action Pistol National Championships and International Tournament was held at Green Valley Rifle & Pistol Club near Columbia, Missouri, May 25-27, 2022, and was attended by competitors from throughout the world.

“After a challenging two years of contending with COVID-19, this sport is building back up to pre-pandemic attendance, which is great to see,” said Golob. “The event consisted of four courses of fire: Practical, Barricades, Falling Plates, and Moving Target. The match tests extreme accuracy and speed. Unlike many other action shooting sports, Bianchi is unique in that there is a perfect score. It allows you to track your progress and test yourself against the best shooters in the world.”

“We at Federal congratulate Julie on her recent wins in Missouri,” said Federal Vice President of Marketing Jason Nash. “Julie and Federal have been partners for many years. She has done excellent work for us, promoting our brand and products. Especially this year with her efforts in helping us produce our ‘It’s Federal Season’ podcast. We thank her for all she does for us, on and off match stages.”

“I rely on Federal Premium components and use a custom load tuned for my Open Division action pistol that starts with high quality Federal brass and incredibly reliable Federal primers,” Golob said. “Their products build confidence in my performance.”
