A sharpshooter unwilling to kill is possible.
Even nice enough to reject a woman who mistakes him for an old friend.
A villain stupid enough to hire them is not. It was the USA that popularised the phrase 'wanted dead or alive'.
The irritating thing is that there are plenty of real tales to be told of 19th century Australia. Just as good as the famous case of Ned Kelly. I've seen a few, but far too few.
Here, we have an improbably tough US hero. I could accept you'd need an American for audiences who would find even the most English Australian a bit alien. But they should face real human problems.
Not keep behaving stupidly and improbably surviving.
