Plot
[edit]In this 23rd installment of Monogram's 24-film "Range Buster" series, ranchers near Winston face cattle theft for the black market by rustlers employing trailer trucks. The government dispatches Range Busters Crash, Denny, and Alibi to investigate. Crash stumbles upon the murdered federal agent who summoned him, accused by gang-member Slade and handed to Sheriff Harley. Denny joins Fred Prescott's daughter, Linda. Alibi persuades the sheriff of Crash's true identity, allowing him to work undercover in the jail. Alibi uncovers Corbin as the gang leader and exposes the truck used for cattle transportation. The trio conceal themselves in the truck, accompanying the gang on their next raid.[4]
