I am Building a Bounty Hunter Flavored Character. He is a Gun wielding Magus and I Need help picking out his Remaining Arcana and Feats.

LV(1) [PBS, Precise Shot]
LV(3) [Rapid Reload (Pistol)] (Arcane Accuracy)
Lv(5) [Amateur Gunslinger]
LV(6) [Deadly Aim] (familiar-Hawk)
LV(7) [Rapid Shot]
Lv(9) (Feat) (Arcana)
LV(11) (Feat)
LV(12) (Feat) (Arcana)
LV(13)(Feat)
LV(15)(Feat) ((Arcana )
LV(17) (feat)
LV(18)(Feat) (Arcana)
LV(19) (Feat)

I took one level of spell-slinger to up the Save Dc of his spells.
and for the added for flavor. I am not sure how far we'll get but i like to have the build planned out to level 20 just so i have a build goal.

My main suggestion concerns something you didn't ask about, namely archetype. Despite its name, Eldritch Archer is one that works fine with guns, and ranged spell combat/spellstrike are going to be mandatory for any sort of ranged Magus build.

I don't think that works. I assume the Spellslinger's (http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/core-classes/wizard/archetypes/paizo-wizard-archetypes/spellslinger/) class features only apply to his wizard spells, just like taking one level of sorcerer wouldn't allow you to cross-class bloodline arcana abilities.

Edit: I was absolutely wrong, and there's an official Paizo FAQ saying so.

But you explicitly can apply Bloodline Arcana to non-sorcerer spells. (http://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9ne8) It even states that abilities that modify spellcasting apply to all of your spellcasting unless explicitly noted. And I don't see anything in the Spellslinger archetype that limits you to wizard spells.

Well, I'm just wrong then, carry on.
