  That old reprobate George Cheseboro is at it again in this low-budget Western from the "new" PRC. This time, Cheseboro plays trading post owner Price Taylor, whose shipments are constantly intercepted by a group of vigilantes. But as undercover lawman Cheyenne Davis (Al "Lash" LaRue) and his sidekick Fuzzy Q. Jones (Al St. John) learn, the vigilantes are local homesteaders fighting against Taylor's exorbitant prices. When the leader of the vigilantes, Frank Jackson (Steve Clark), is murdered by the crooked sheriff (Lee Morgan), Cheyenne and Fuzzy go after Taylor, who is eventually whipped into submission.
