zz Bergen’s Revenge is in the West A game of death.

A group of bandits kidnapped the wife (played by Candice Bergen) of the local farmer Brandt Ruger (played by Gene Hackman). As the richest man in the area, Brandt Ruger couldn't bear this humiliation, so he asked a few friends to help and launched revenge.

However, there are many criminals, all of whom are professional gunmen, and Brandt's several friends are businessmen. The businessman confronts the gunman, and he is still outnumbered. If he fights hard, he will be dead.

At that time, the ordinary Winchester rifle had a range of only 350 yards, while Brandt had a new ultra-long-range rifle with a scope in his hand, with a range of about 800 yards, which could kill people invisible.

So, a few businessmen with long-range rifles launched a revenge hunting party.

After several rounds of sniping, ambush, and counter-ambush battles between the two sides, the survivors finally ran out of water and food, and they all died together.
