The Challenges:
Deadeye - Kill 50 Players with a headshot. - 1000 XP
To score a headshot in War Games, you will need a headshot capable weapon. In Halo 4, these include the DMR (Designated Marksman Rifle), the BR (Battle Rifle), the Magnum Pistol, the Sniper Rifle, the Covenant Carbine, the Beam Rifle, the Light Rifle, and the Binary Cannon. Now, usually when we see this challenge, it is asking for twelve or so kills so they have upped the ante a lot today. Complete "Spartan The Pistolero" first as you are likely to score some headshots there if you go the SWAT route. The easiest way to score these headshots will be in a gametype like SWAT where almost all of the kills are headshots. Just play normally while you amass these headshots. It should not take more than four or five games to complete.

The Pistolero - Get 10 kills with a Secondary Weapon in a single match. - 2000 XP
Secondary weapons in Halo 4 include the Magnum Pistol, the Plasma Pistol, and the Boltshot. You will not be scoring many kills with the Plasma Pistol so do not even worry about it. Since SWAT is an available playlist, this challenge is actually extremely easy to complete. Stick to the Magnum on smaller maps like Haven and go for headshots on your unshielded foes. The Boltshot is also viable and best used on a map like Adrift, which has a lot more close quarters areas, and in objective gametypes. You will need to spend a game exclusively focusing on these weapons if you plan on getting ten kills and completing this challenge. Good luck.
