I was playing my game looking through achievements and saw headshot honcho. I tried to get and I got the 10 in a row but it did not unlock. I tried again with no luck. Has this happened to anybody else? If you know how to fix this please reply.

Try doing it in Campaign on the Ark, at the beginning where you have to snipe the Covenant. That's how I got mine.

Headshot Honcho
Kill 10 enemies with headshots in a ranked free for all playlist or in campaign.
From the description, I'd say no, but that's how I got mine.

This.
Much easier, much less random. Snipe the Brutes, and you CAN BR a couple Jackals to finish it if you are out of ammo, but I recommend that you snipe them. I have done this for a few friends as well as myself, and it works.
But the beginning of the Ark level is where you have the best opportunity to do this of anywhere.

Whats the Dealio?!?

I did it with only the sniper. Just snipe grunts and jackals, too many if them to miss. I'm also pretty sure no other guns count towards it, so the sniper MIGHT be your only option.

This is what I'm thinking because on all of the levels before the Ark, I'm pretty sure I headshotted dozens of enemies with the BR but it didn't unlock. Hell, I didn't even know it was an achievement until it popped up during the Ark.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

1. Campaign mission "The Ark."
2. Grunt Birthday Party skull.
3. Sniper Rifle
4. Headshot grunts
5. ???
6. Profit.

Same here. Make sure you are getting headshot.

No need for the BR, there's more sniper ammo at the top of the hill. Especially if you're playing on Normal, 10 headshots with 36 bullets is... not difficult.
