Plot summary

An unknown Annie Oakley (Barbara Stanwyck) challenges Toby Walker (Preston Foster), the resident marksman of Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, to a contest. Attracted to the handsome sharpshooter and not wanting to embarrass him, Annie deliberately loses the match. However, her skill and beauty land her a job with the show. Under Toby's tutelage, Annie becomes a star attraction for Buffalo Bill (Moroni Olsen).
