How to unlock the Marksman achievement in Just Cause 2 - Definitive Guide

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned this, but you can click the right stick to zoom in for all weapons, making headshots much easier.

I found the majority of my headshots were done with the pistol and the SMG using this method.

It's also very easy to get headshots when clearing out the passengers of enemy cars and choppers you're about to hijack. Just take your time as you aim.

Like in every game, headshots make killing people easier. Just aim for the head and pull the trigger. To speed up the progress to this achievement, simply always aim for the head. It's not that hard and it's even quite useful since headshots do more damage than bodyshots.

This one is an easy one if you use a combination of the sniper for long range targets and pistols for mid to close range.

This achievement should come natural over a few hours of play but if your struggling, one tactic that work well for me was to find a one story building with a balcony with some cover e.g. a small wall or a large plant pot. When you have the soldiers attention, crouch behind the cover and aim your crosshairs at their head and pull the trigger. Rico should pop up and shot the target in the head. It will tell you in the top left of the screen each time you get a headshot.

In several missions, you will find snipers, which drop a sniper rifle after killing them. Pick up their weapon and proceed with head shots to as many enemies as possible. Repeat 50 times to unlock this achievement. Normal weapons can be used too, but usually take a few bullets more to take the enemy down.

Note: The DLC weapon 'Bull's Eye Rifle' from the Limited Edition has a scope, which can be used for head shots as well.

This is a very simple trophy. All you need to do is kill an enemy with a headshot 50 times. It doesn’t matter which gun you use, although for the tougher enemies you may want to use an assault rifle as it does more damage.
To aim your gun simply pull it out by shooting straight away with the button or you could press or on the d-pad to select a weapon. Then just move your crosshairs onto the enemies head and press to fire. You will know if the headshot was successful because there is a counter that pops up at the top of the screen every time you get a headshot.

You can kill by aiming R3. But in general, the game is long and you don’t have to worry about it.
