How to unlock the Marksman achievement in Metro 2033 Redux - Definitive Guide
Load up Frontline, and as soon as you roll off from the cart. Take out your pneumatic weapon, CRANK it up fully (Hold LB + Press D-RIGHT) - Then use RT to crank. One fully cranked, turn to the front of the tunnel.
Your target is the guy standing on the rail car. He doesn't have a helmet. Line up the dot sight with his head and BANG. Don't take more than a couple steps towards him (enough to line up a shot). That's more than 30 meters. I never missed from here. Reload checkpoint. (I found the targeting of this gun the best at long range).
Rather than including my weapon kills video though I've included my 'full Enlightened playthrough' video, as it actually points out the specific spot I stand/shoot from. Unfortunately I'd already unlocked the achievement so you don't see it pop in the video but this is where I did it. You can see it at the 14:04 mark in the video.
You can pair this with Sniper if you wish. Use a weapon with a scope attachment, like a Revolver or Hellbreath to ensure you are more accurate from range. I got this trophy by reloading checkpoint on the Dry Chapter.
This achievement is slightly similar to "Sniper", with the only difference being in the distance of which headshots must be performed. You will probably want to arm yourself with a decent medium-to-long range weapon such as the Tilhar (pneumatic), Kalash (assault rifle), or VSV (assault rifle). Additionally, it is highly recommended to have a scope attached to the Tilhar or Kalash when working on this achievement.
Overall, this will most likely come naturally to players who are attempting to stealthily take down enemies from afar with silenced, ranged weapons. There are plenty of levels that offer straight sightlines for the required distance, however "Frontline" is one of the very best levels to grind this out on. Once you manage to get fifteen headshots from a thirty meters' distance, the achievement will finally unlock.
