When found later by a teenage boy on a hillside, the nine shot revolver had seven empty chambers. We know that Frykowski had two bullet holes, Sebring had one. Perhaps Tex shot Parent once and assumed he was dead. That leaves three shots for the coup de grace to Parent.
As you say, if Tex shot four bullets into Parent, it would be a stretch to assume that the shots did not alarm the people in the house and they come running out. But maybe one shot would not necessarily bring them out of the house.
Could be so, if Watson only had the shells loaded in the gun, and needed to save ammo for the house killings.
