How to unlock the Pass the Buck achievement in Sniper Elite V2 Remastered - Definitive Guide

Turn off the tutorials in the options and start the prologue on cadet difficulty. With disabling the tutorials you will start directly at a really good location for this achievement. Aim at the same spot on the pillar next to the German general as in the video. The first shot will always miss but the second shot will hit the target.

About 20 chest and shoulder hits later I managed to get it XD Very helpful.

No idea how I got this on the 360 version, probably a shallow bounce of a car roof or off the ground into a prone soldier o_O
I wish they'd put a bit more effort into ricochets, they never seem to get a good cinematic focus, like a slow-mo bounce off the surface a bullet hits.

This achievement is based more on luck than anything, but it still relatively easy to obtain. The requirement of this achievement is to bounce a bullet off of a wall, floor, or any object and strike an enemy in the head. Chances are that you might get this through natural progression but here are a couple of opportunities.
 
Your first opportunity is in the 'Prologue' when you are tasked with eliminating Major-General Hans von Eisenberg. You will see him speaking with his Russian contact in a square. Line up your sights so the horizontal line of the scope is level with the heads of the two enemies. Instead of shooting the Major-General in the head, aim at the column to the right and shoot. If you hit the right location, the bullet will ricochet off the column and hit the Russian contact in the head. If it does not, reload the checkpoint and try again.

Another opportunity is in Mission 8, 'Karlshorst Command Post'. Just after you destroy the tank and kill the enemies in front of the building, enter the building and walk halfway down a ramp. Make sure you are on the right-hand side. Aim down the hallway and you will see a couple of enemies run into your sights. Aim at the floor in front of them and keep shooting until a bullet ricochets off the floor and hits one of them in the head. If this does not happen by the time all the enemies are dead, reload the checkpoint and try again.

Can be done at the mission in the church. After we pick up the rifle and watch the cinematic, we will need to repel three attack points. After the cutscene, we are already sitting near the opening with the first point of attack; on the roof opposite there will be a sniper, next to whom there is a bottle for Mumbling. Shoot lower than the sniper, understand the trajectory and be able to load a ricochet bullet into his head
