You wound the croc with your rifle; it hisses then lunges at you!

Roll GRIT!

4 on a D4 roll.
You find four meals' worth of roots/berries.
My fire is more than can be made with forests,
My state more base than are the basest valleys;
I wish no evenings more to see, each evening;
Shamed, I hate myself in sight of mountains,
And stop mine ears, lest I grow mad with music.

You narrowly avoid being snapped!

You may act!

I ain't taking any chances with this fella. I'll let off another salvo at him.

This is you firing your rifle, yes? In which case, roll a d8 for the damage!

(I thought you had a d10 long rifle, but you have a d8 hunting rifle after all)

Your bullet bounces off the croc's scaley hide!

It growls and snaps at you again! Test GRIT once again!

I believe you have an Ace if you'd like to re-roll that ¬_¬

Your shot tears into the croc but it's still not dead!

Test GRIT again to avoid the teeth!

Can one of us step in and help or is he too far from camp?

You can probably hear the shots from not too far away. You can go help him if you like!
