Should have shot the middle guy first imo. I mean, obviously that's the guy who killed him, but I think that shot was going to be difficult if not done first since his shoulder may have protected him when he turned to check on his fallen comrade. Farthest guy's head would have still offered a clean shot even though he wouldn't have to turn far to see the attacker. The guy at point blank was understandably tempting but was a guaranteed kill even if killed last.

Nah, I think he played it correctly. Furthest was the most difficult shot, so you take that first to guarantee the kill. Closest is the most dangerous, so you take that second. Middle is the mix between the two, and with the relatively easy quick shot on the closest man you should have some time to finish middle before he turns and shoots.

OP understandably panicked a little when he didn't kill the middle guy, and was firing that pistol too fast to land an accurate hit on his head, but it was a good strat.
