Shooters were treated to a Saturday night banquet fit for a king where nine Browning firearms and thousands of dollars in Briley certificates were given away.
This shoot has gained a reputation of being one of the most fun and most enjoyable sporting events of the year for all classes, not just the big guns.
If you missed this year’s Browning/Briley, plan to join us next year again at Caney Creek March 30 – April 3.
