The Challenges:
Shootin' and Lootin' - Kill 150 enemies in any game mode in Reach. - 5343cR
Well, a hundred and fifty enemies today in Reach overall, not just in multiplayer Matchmaking. That is good because the other challenges will not take care of this one for you. "Not as Clumsy or Random..." will net you about twelve to fifteen kill, "Close Talking" will get you about thirty or so, and "The Dream Shake" will likely not add any extra kills to this number. That leaves you just over a hundred kills short. This would be a good time, than, to head over to the Score Attack playlist. Play a single game, like 2X Score Attack or Gruntpocalypse, and this challenge is done.

Not as Clumsy or Random... - Earn 5 kills with precision weapons in a multiplayer Matchmaking game. - 2000cR
Thankfully, this challenge is very, very easy and should only take a single game to complete. The trick is to make sure that you are using the rights playlist and gametype for the challenge. For our purposes, needing kills with precision weapons (DMR, Sniper Rifle, Needle Rifle, and Covenant Beam Rifle), we will want to play in either the Team Snipers or Team SWAT playlist which use the Sniper Rifle and DMR respectively. Five kills will be easy enough to hit in a single game as you should be hitting ten to fifteen kills per game anyway. One game and then just move on to the other challenges.

Close Talking - Earn 77 kills with close quarters combat in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 2800cR
Close quarters combat kills in Reach are earned when you score kills via the Shotgun, Gravity Hammer, Energy Sword, Melee, and Assassination. By far, Grifball is the best playlist for this and allows you to do all but one of those and no other types of kills (unless the Grifball explodes). You can get more than thirty kills in a single game, but expect to play two to three games to complete this challenge. If Grifball is not you cup of tea, the I would suggest heading to Multi Team on a small map. This will take a hell of a lot longer though, so be prepared for the long haul.

The Dream Shake - Earn 4 Double Kills in the same match in multiplayer Matchmaking. - 4000cR
Now, a Double Kill is earned when you score two kills within four seconds of each other. This is the most basic form of a multikill and the easiest to obtain. Work on "Close Talking" and "Not as Clumsy or Random..." first as you might be able to complete this while working on them. If not, then I would suggest heading to the Grifball playlist and playing an extra game or two in there. Multikills are an extremely common site in Grifball and you can score them without even putting forth any actual effort. This should take a single game of Grifball to complete.
