Follow Micah to rob a stagecoach
Now, grab your horse and ride with Micah. It's a slow ride with a lot of talking.
Keep riding until your reach a high place. Wait for the stagecoach to arrive.
Ride fast and attack the stagecoach before it reaches Strawberry. Kill all of the people on horses guarding it as well.
Once you've eliminated all of them, get on the stagecoach. Micah should be the one controlling it.
However, you guys will get ambushed by O'Driscolls during the journey.
Kill the O'Driscolls
After the cutscene, kill all of the O'Driscoll boys. There will be plenty of them and some will come on horses. They will run away at some point after you've killed plenty.
After they're gone, shoot the lock on the door to get the chest. If you fail to do so quickly, Micah will be the one shooting it.
After getting the lockbox, you guys will share the profits. You should get $300 as your own share.
And that's about it. If you wish to get a perfect score, you need to fulfill the following items on the checklist:
- Headshot each of the mounted guards protecting the wagon
- Get 10 kills in dead eye
- Complete within 6 minutes
- Complete the mission without taking any health items
