How to unlock the Waste achievement in Heavy Fire: Shattered Spear - Definitive Guide
Load up the helicopter mission (8). I believe it was called "Straits of Hormuz" or something like that. The picture it shows is of the deck of an aircraft carrier. You'll take off, then you come up to the first ship. Destroy the turrets. One at the bow, 2 at the stern. Then aim at the top of the screen and put an elastic around your trigger and leave it be. No hassle with reloading and whatnot. Easiest way I've found.
Fire 25,000 rounds of ammunition.
This achievement is cumulative. Any round that you fire in any level and any difficulty adds to this total.
The very first level is an unlimited round machine gun. With that being said, just start your game as normal and finish the first playthrough on easy and then finish the second on veteran. When both of those are finished, just replay the first mission on easy. Get to a cover point and stay in cover. Then you can just empty your magazine over and over since it is unlimited.
It took me about 5 minutes of this method to finish my 25,000 rounds once i took cover.
There is a good chance you will not unlock this trophy during your normal two playthroughs. This is a good trophy to save for last. Now if after you have completed the game and unlocked all of the other trophies, load up either mission 5 or mission 8 and just spray your machine guns until the trophy pops. But you should unlock this trophy with Trigger Happy while you are grinding missed shots.
Note: You can check the progress of this trophy at any time from your profile stats in the main menu.
You should be pretty close to this by the time you finish Veteran Mode. If you still need to fire out more rounds, simply select the LMG in your armory and spray away!
Another good way of burning through some rounds is to load up Mission 7. This is the mission where you will be in control of the jet and have to destroy enemy turrets on the ships. At the very beginning of the mission where you need to destroy the turrets on the first ship, simply destroy them but don't shoot at the other objects on the ship. The jet will sway back and forth, so aim your cross-hair up in the sky and fire away.
