well, im currently at 271 kills and 78 headshots with the executioner. its going much better than i thought it would. ive been using lightweight, fast hands, tac mask with shock charges, laser and fast mags. i tried dual and it was fine as far as the double kill/bloodthirsty, but it made headshots even more difficult. i might go back to them for the other challenges. i havent found a better solution that laser and fast mags for the headshots though. ive even got probably 5 bloodthirsties using that setup. i REALLY wish they counted haha. i htink the 150 kills with no perks/attachments is going to be the biggest grind. this weapon really benefits from fast mags and the crazy use of shocks/stuns. ill be way WAY less lethal without those...

Heck, you can use Tactician and roll with both, since you're not spending points on anything else.

I'm upto 91 headshots now. I have found shooting down from ledges, ramps and windows all to increase my chance of headshots.
@kirby I'm not looking forward to the 150 no perk no attachment challenge at all, I might do them separate, but I suppose thats just prolonging the agony.

Would anyone advocate aiming just above the targets head for Executioner headshots? When I aim for the head normally I don't seem to get that many h/s, and i'm assuming the pellet spray downwards towards the body is to blame. This. Play hardcore with fast mags and laser sight. Aim for the laser just over the top of their head if they are less than 10 ft away. Honestly, this was the pistol I felt was fastest to get the headshot challenges with, but the no attachment/perk challenges are grueling. Spoiler: Only the B23 and Executioner look acceptable with diamonds.

i just got gold with the executioner last night. took me 682 kills. finished with 134 headshots and a 0.85 KD haha. i still have no unlocked scavenger, so i did it entirely without that. i actually finished the bloodthirsty challenge pretty easily and my last challenge was the double kills, needed four or five.
i think we've come to a consensus that the laser sight and fast mags is the best setup for headshot hunting. i spammed stuns and concussions in core FFA and felt like it was fairly efficient. you guys talking about aiming high, it might work fine in hardcore, but id think that is a death sentence in core, especially considering the gun kicks up already, and a good deal of my headshots were NOT OHKs...
as for the double kills and bloodthirsties, i really benefited from the tac knife and fast mags. the tac knife was my savior many a time when i was reloading. it also saves ammo ( i didnt use scavenger bc i didnt have it). at the same time, after i got the bloodthirsties, i switched to dual to finish off the double kills, and i was getting bloodthirsties with those too. i think its preference. and you can be equally effective with either setup.
kap is the only one left, and i got a 30 headshot headstart...
