You'll want to do this as soon as you find a place you can rocket multiple aliens, ideally four or more, but no less than three.
1) Save your game (Save A)
2) Rocket enemies
3) Save your game (Save B)
4) Load Save A
5) Repeat from step 2 until the achievement pops.
Without installing the game, it takes about a minute to do the full loop, so expect this to take 10-20 minutes, depending on how many you can rocket at once.

Step 3 is not required.
Pick Danger Zone and Mayhem for your Heavy. With those abilities I was able to Rocket 6 enemies at a time.

It'd limit the amount you'd have to reload, but step 3 would still be required if you don't use explosives often.

This achievement is a Tally of all single player games, you dont have to kill all 50 in a single game. The amount you have done is shown at the end of a game at a statistics screen.

Can this be boosted by repeatedly reloading the same save point, killing the same alien, and repeating?

i believe its possible if you save kill save then load the first save kill and save again

This one will come with time, just make sure that either all your troops have grenades or that you have a couple of heavy weapon troops so you can use their rocket launcher. Just make sure to use them on sectoids or slim men whenever you can. Especially if they are in a group of 2 or 3 so you can catch them in the blast radius of said explosive device :)

Bring along Grenades or Heavy's and blow 50 aliens up. This trophy should unlock during the course of your first playthrough naturally.

A simple trophy, all fighters have grenades from the very beginning. Then you will be able to capture/produce alien grenades (they are more powerful), kills from a rocket launcher also count (the Heavy class has them).
The main difficulty of the trophy is that when you kill an enemy with a grenade, you can blow up his corpse and weapon, and if you are fighting with a UFO, then also the alien equipment. This greatly impacts your pocket and research speed. It is best to do the trophy on an easy difficulty level, when you are also trying to get cumulative trophies at the same time. One fighter can have a maximum of 2 grenades and 2 rocket launcher charges (this is for the upgraded Heavy class). Usually a fighter has one grenade and no rocket launcher.

as stated above - it is not wise to kill with grenades and rockets, if it is possible to cover 3-5 aliens with one explosion - make a save, tear them to pieces, reboot and until victory, the kill count is counted even if the game is not saved

Use grenades and rocket launchers to kill 50 aliens. But remember that blowing up enemies will not give you their bodies or weapons for further research.
