How to unlock the Novice Marksman achievement in theHunter: Call of the Wild - Definitive Guide
I'm not sure if small animals (the ones you can't mark with the binoculars) count, but even if they did, it would be pretty tough to shoot one.
For this achievement, just find any type of large game as they're obviously bigger and easier to hit. Preferably in a wide open area where you can get the distance needed. Use your binoculars to tag the animal, then go into your map, zoom in to find the tagged animal on your map and set your waypoint on it. Back out of your map and back up until you have reached your distance needed for this achievement. Back up 10-50 meters more if you are unsure of whether or not you will hit your target.
Either go crouch or prone, whichever works easier for you. Make sure your target is still far enough away that you will get your achievement. If not, adjust your distance by backing up. Aim for the top of the deer (not above as the bullet drop isn't much if there is any at all), hold your breath and squeeze the trigger. As long as you hit the animal (you don't have to kill it), the achievement is yours.

When I was going for the 400 meters achievement it didn't unlock so I continued to shoot more and more from that same distance with no luck. The achievement never popped nor did it show unlocked on Xbox or TA. Then randomly the next day it showed that I had it.

This achievement should be easy to get, as 50 meters is a short distance.
If you are unsure about the distance to an animal and have not unlocked a rangefinder, you can use the in-game map to approximate the distance. After spotting an animal with the binoculars, the animal will appear on the map. From the map screen you can see the distance from yourself to the target animal.
