How to unlock the Silver Lining achievement in theHunter: Call of the Wild - Definitive Guide
This is really simple and if you plan on hunting quite a few animals don't even worry about going for this as it unlocked for me in the first 20 mins. On the other hand if not go for a bad kill as silver is on the lower scale of ratings I believe I took 2 body shots and it unlocked. although there are variables with how you hunt it you shouldn't have a problem.
To achieve a silver rating on an animal, you will need to score a certain number of points depending on the species. An animal's difficulty rating (typically increasing with the size of the animal) is a large portion of the score.
In addition to hunting more difficult animals, there are some other factors that determine your score:
Using the appropriate weapon class for the specific animal, taking two or fewer shots to down the animal, hitting a vital organ, and not destroying any trophy organs.
