Synopsis:

The rich and ruthless rancher Brandt Ruger keeps his beautiful young wife Melissa like a part of his property, subdued to his will. But one day she's kidnapped by the famous outlaw Frank Calder - just to teach him reading, so he tells her. Calder doesn't know or care who's wife she is. He takes care of her well, and eventually Melissa falls in love with him. But Ruger feels humiliated. Full of hate, he sets out to kill him - and Melissa too, if necessary. Together with his friends and the newest technology in guns, which carry 800 yards, he initiates a battue on Calder and his gang.

Gritty western/action film about a notorious outlaw, Frank Calder, who kidnaps the young, mistreated wife of a ruthless cattle rancher, Brandt Ruger. But even as an outraged Ruger recruits a posse to hunt them down, an unlikely romance begins to blossom between Calder and his beautiful prisoner, Melissa Ruger. Great cast featuring Gene Hackman, Candice Bergen and Oliver Reed.

A ruthless rancher, and his gang, use extremely long range rifles to kill the men who kidnapped his infidel wife.
