I presume Becky was his wife and George was the person who was with his wife? Your story, with its awful ending, meets contest requirements so well done. Sending good wishes for your entry.

So it seems the site is running a 75-word Flash contest simultaneously with an 80-worder. Weird. I hope I'm still allowed to use that word.
You do well to fit the content into the strict word limit while maintaining clarity of narration. The open ending is a suitable way to conclude a Flash story, leaving it up to the reader to interpret who Billy was firing at, did the victim die, what was the aftermath.
Good luck.
