Hello,
I do not want to rain on your parade, but the letter is not a good idea. I grew up on a farm, and we get a ton of junk mail, you do not want to risk getting mixed in with that. Also we liked it when the hunters would stop and BS with us. A five minute face-to-face is worth a million words. And unless they ask, do not go into a lot of detail about "I would be happy to substitute this firearm for that one". If a farmer has a case of "centerfire paranoia" it will become obvious to you within the first 30 seconds. If they hedge, and if you absolutely want to rifle-hunt that land offer to substitute a 22 but mostly I would just politely thank them for their time and move on to the next farm.
And do not forget the Holiday gifts for those that grant you permission.
