Well moving around is a good tactic. Never stand still EVER, not for a fraction of a second, you will die if you do... unless your fighting an idiot anyway.

Getting head shots with a sniper rifle or pistol is a skill many players spend weeks honing to perfection. It's all about reflexes. Try and keep your aiming cursor near their head while still moving around, and the second it turns red whack that mouse button.

If your using a rapid fire weapon keep your mouse button pressed down and keep the aim around the head, not all your shots will hit, but when they do they are going to do some damage. A single headshot from the chaingun is worth 50 damage IIRC. Compare that with the 7 or 8 damage you would get from body shots and you can see why headshots kill people a LOT quicker.

Also be aware that if your aiming for the head you might hit the neak, which is worth 2.5x damage (IIRC), not as much as the headshot (5x I believe), but still a lot better than body shots.

The numbers I gave are just what I can remember off the top of my head, they are probably wrong, but I am at university at the moment so I can't check.
