Personally I say it's a draw...
And I'm talking Realistic, OVA Kenshin. Let me explain.
While Kenshin may not have GOD like speed in the OVA, there is no denieing that he does have superior speed and senses. The particular style of swordplay he uses requires it. It's a stealth assination technique that is revolved around quick counters, which requires a knowledge of muscle retraction, or seeing how the joints move to know where the next attack is coming from. This is a practical technique that is utilized. Now, if they are a good distance apart, all there is to dodgeing a bullet is seeing the muscle contraction in the finger. Not impossible, but I will admit that we have to stretch our realism a bit, but it CAN be done. Now the next thing we have to factor in is the type of gun wolfwood had been using, or if Kenshin can get in close enough due to recoil time... Ok, obviously alot of factors come in to play here, but the point is, it's not unrealistic to believe Kenshin can't dodge ONE bullet at least. It's been done before. Hell, there have been stories of people who have caught bullets with their BAREHANDS before (Granted this is once in a very blue moon and it requires too much fucking skill, and probably hurts like a mofo...) And if Kenshin can dodge that one bullet, anything can happen from there.

Quite honestly I think these threads are too boring for words and show how obsessed we can be :¬ \
I'm bored and you're dumb. A match made in heaven.

Wolfwood tells Kenshin he doesn't want to shoot but will if he has to. 8) Kenshin says some wise thing about not fighting if there is no need.
They decide to go off to the tavern for a few beers, so everyone wins.
