Where Quick Draw Kate takes on the most wanted outlaws
When a VS symbol lands, the entire reel transforms into a duel scene. The Outlaw reveals a multiplier between 2x and 100x that applies to all winning combinations on that reel. Multiple Outlaw multipliers on winning paylines are added together for devastating payouts.
Bounty VS symbols trigger Kate herself to appear on the reel with multipliers ranging from 2x to 100x. These progressive multipliers increase throughout bonus rounds, creating escalating win potential as the feature continues.
During Four Shots to Freedom bonus, filling the Bullets and Bounty Bar awards DuelSpins with guaranteed VS symbols. Level 1 starts with 2 guaranteed VS symbols, progressing to Level 4 with all 5 reels transformed into DuelReels simultaneously.

Hacksaw Gaming's DuelReels mechanic fundamentally changes how expanding symbols work in slots. Unlike traditional expanding wilds that simply fill reels, each DuelReel in Bullets and Bounty displays an actual character duel and assigns a random multiplier from 2x up to 100x. The critical strategic element: Outlaw multipliers on the same winning payline add together rather than multiply, creating scenarios where three 50x Outlaw DuelReels on a winning combination deliver a combined 150x multiplier to that win.
Reaching the 20,000x maximum requires perfect alignment of multiple systems. The highest-paying Sheriff Badge symbol awards 1x bet for five-of-a-kind. To reach 20,000x from this base, you need combined multipliers totalling 20,000x across winning lines. This becomes achievable during the Hidden Epic Bonus where Progressive Bounty Hunter Multipliers increase throughout the feature, and Level 4 DuelSpins guarantee all five reels transform simultaneously. A single spin with five 100x Bounty Hunter multipliers on a winning payline would deliver 500x on that line alone.
The 2-out-of-5 star volatility rating positions Bullets and Bounty in medium territory, but this masks significant variance between features. Base game plays relatively smooth with frequent small DuelReel triggers providing steady action. The True Grit bonus maintains medium volatility with 10 spins and progressive multipliers. However, Four Shots to Freedom introduces higher variance through its level progression system where early levels may yield modest returns while Level 3 and 4 DuelSpins carry massive potential.
When True Grit triggers naturally, players face an immediate strategic choice. Taking the guaranteed 10 free spins provides known value with Progressive Bounty Hunter Multipliers. The revolver gamble offers a 33.3% chance (chambers 1-2) to upgrade to Four Shots to Freedom, 33.3% chance for 5x instant cash, 16.7% for 10x, and 16.7% for 20x. Mathematically, the gamble heavily favours players seeking maximum potential since Four Shots to Freedom has 96.30% RTP versus True Grit's 96.26%, plus significantly higher max win potential through the DuelSpin level system.
The paytable follows a steep graduation from card suits (0.10x for five) through themed symbols up to the Sheriff Badge (1x for five). Wild, VS, and Bounty VS symbols all pay 3x for five-of-a-kind, making them valuable even without their special functions. The 19 paylines create frequent multi-line wins, and with DuelReel multipliers applying to entire winning combinations, a single DuelReel can boost multiple simultaneous paylines. This multiplication effect explains how medium volatility can still deliver explosive wins.
The five buy options serve distinct playstyles. BonusHunt at 1.5x bet suits extended sessions with 5x increased trigger rates. Bad Blood FeatureSpins (96.36% RTP) offers the highest return percentage with guaranteed double VS symbols creating consistent multiplier action. Draw or Die focuses entirely on Bounty Hunter multipliers for players prioritising progressive builds. Direct bonus buys at 35x (True Grit) and 100x (Four Shots) cater to immediate gratification, with Four Shots providing the most direct route to maximum potential through its level system.
Landing five FS scatters for Go Ahead, Make Her Day represents the rarest trigger in Bullets and Bounty. This Hidden Epic Bonus combines the best elements: 10 free spins starting at DuelSpin Level 1 with Progressive Bounty Hunter Multipliers active from spin one. The starting DuelSpin level means even the first spin can award 3 additional spins plus a guaranteed 2-VS DuelSpin, immediately accelerating toward Level 4 where all five reels transform. This feature alone justifies the 20,000x max win claim.
With bets ranging from £0.10 to £50.00 in base game (feature buys can exceed this), bankroll management centres on bonus frequency. Base game bonus triggers require patience, making BonusHunt FeatureSpins attractive for £0.30 per spin versus waiting for natural triggers. The 100x cost for Four Shots to Freedom means a £0.20 base bet requires £20.00 per purchase. For players with £200 bankrolls targeting premium bonuses, this allows 10 attempts. The consistent 96%+ RTP across all modes means long-term returns remain stable regardless of chosen feature.
The protagonist Katherine "Quick Draw Kate" O'Callaghan isn't merely aesthetic. Her presence on Bounty DuelReels versus generic Outlaws on VS DuelReels creates clear visual distinction between multiplier types. The narrative of surviving a four-man shootout before they cleared leather reinforces the progressive multiplier concept where Kate's multipliers increase throughout features, representing her growing dominance in extended shootouts. This thematic cohesion between character backstory and game mechanics demonstrates Hacksaw Gaming's attention to immersive design.
Bullets and Bounty includes comprehensive keyboard shortcuts for desktop efficiency (SHIFT+B for bonus menu, SHIFT+1/2/3/4 for quick bonus purchases) while maintaining full touch functionality for mobile. The Super Turbo™ and Turbo options apply separately to base game and bonus rounds, allowing players to speed through base game hunting for bonuses while slowing down to savour feature rounds. This granular control over game pace suits both casual players and high-volume bonus hunters.
