You are right. The casuality rate was not high. But rather because there have not been many situations with duellists and gunfighting in high noon. The whole bloodthirsty genre is an invention of cheesy pulp mags and some clever Italians. So if you play a "western game" then you just copy cheap movies and comics but not how it really was to live in the 19th wild west.
