On the run from the Cavalry Reno runs into a group of women being attacked by native americans. He helps them and also leads the Cavalry to their location forcing the Cavalry to get swept up in the skirmish as Reno flees. He later finds an outlaw mailbox with a flier for a rodeo in Cayuse. Reno goes to the town and enters the competition after a little resistance.

Reno does incredibly well in the competition which leads to one of his rivals San Francisco Slade to do everything in his power to make him lose. So Slade hires a a couple thugs to beat up Reno but Reno beats them easily. He then hires a gunhand name Durango to murder Reno, but Durango loses and is killed in the process. Slade uses this to his advantage and gets Reno arrested under the false pretense that Reno murdered in cold blood.

Synopsis for "Dangerous Game"

Reprint of the 6th story from
Frontier Western #10
A man attempts to kill Sam Kane, the same man who he prior to the shooting sent to prison for 3 years after identifying him as the one who robbed the express office. After the attempted murder Sam went and confronted the man named Ferris only for their shootout to lead to a rockslide trapping Ferris. Sam instead of leaving him for dead went back and saved him out of the same duty that made him identify him as the robber. Ferris having been saved forgives Sam for snitching on him, finally realizing the code he lives by and instead asks Sam to be his friend.
