Ed Hixson, Waco Texas Sheriff, calms a brawl in the local saloon. When the confrontation ends in the death of one of the drunken cattle drovers at Hixson's hand, trouble breaks out as the head of the gang, Jeb Twilley, declares war on Waco vowing that he will kill the sheriff and burn the town to the ground. Hixson must keep the gang away from the town and confront them in a manner to cut the odds with so many guns stacked against him. Hixson has a plan and employs a tool given him by his old buffalo hunting daddy to quell the raid and save the day.
