Plot

Cowboy Cheney Holland (Don Megowan) and his brother Luke rob of a load of rifles but later are abandoned by the rest of their gang. The pursuing lawmen, including their former friend Marshal Matt Gordon (Jim Davis), chase the brothers, eventually killing Luke and apprehending Cheney. With his girlfriend Sherri (Allison Hayes) on his side, Cheney Holland escapes and seeks to avenge his younger brother. While Holland chases his previous gang of criminals led by Isaac Stansil (Gerald Milton), Holland is himself pursued by the stubborn Marshal Gordon. Holland eventually catches up with Stancil, killing him. Meanwhile, Gordon apprehends Sherry and uses her to lure Holland; the two meet in a dramatic showdown, and Holland is killed.
