Hot Lead is a 1951 Western film.
The movie uses footage from an earlier Tim Holt film Saddle Legion - one of the rare times this happened in Holt movies.
According to Tom Stempel:
Hot Lead was one Holt written by William Lively. Unlike Houston and Repp, he had no feel for the Tim-Chito relationship. At the end of the film they ride off arguing, something Tim and Chito never did. The film was directed by Stewart Gilmore, one of only six features he directed. He soon realized he was a better editor than director and had a long career as a film editor.
