Easy. I got mine in Zimbawe while hunting the Springboks herd- "Hunt 5 Springboks Along the Zambezi River!". As soon as you start ask the porter for the proper weapon, switch to it, look to your right immediately. You won't see them on the radar but they are there and you can shoot at them. Don't bother w/the scope it'll take valuable time. I got all 5 kills without reloading or using scope. JUST SHOOT! =) my longest was 194yards.

Can any one help me with this? No matter what I do, I can't get this achievement to unlock. I tried the 5 Springboks mission multiple times but achievement won't unlock. I believe this achievement is glitched.
I wiped the system cache and started a new game and on the very first Day of the Safari Hunt, I picked a non-bird mission and shot an animal at 150+ yards and it didn't unlock.
I tried the 5 Springboks mission from Open Safari, as well as played through the Safari Hunt again and got to it, but still no luck. This is the final achievement for me to get 1000/1000 - this is really getting on my nerves/

For this achievement all you'll have to do is to follow what my other solution says to do to get the 'Hunter Super Sense' achievement
The Hunter Super Sense achievement in Cabela's African Safari worth 23 pointsTake two game kills in the same use of Hunter Sense ability, except in Wing and Herd missions.
But wait for the horde of 'Springbok' to run far distance in front of your position and use your rifle to kill the trophy. I got this no problem.
Good luck and hope this helps :)

This actually isn't missable and I did this in Dangerous Seven hunting the Leopard. So you can either select that hunt there, or in the Story (Safari Hunt) the final hunt (Trophy) of Namibia.
Once the level starts you want to equip the correct rifle - the .375 in this case. Then head straight ahead (North) for about 60-80 metres. You will see a larger hill on the left (you passed a smaller one before). Go to the top of this hill and bring up your scope. There is a hill directly across from you. Scan to the left until you get the clearing and you will see the Leopard heading to the right.
If you get a good shot away to the head, heart, or generally neck (for me), then you should kill it in one shot. If you get this when the Leopard is in the clearing, it will be over 150 yards. If you wait until the Leopard walks right and to the shrubs/tree, then that marker is 145 yards. So it can be close if you wait too long.
I got it around 160 yards. Use this as an alternative if you have trouble with the other two guides here.
