    This solution was made when the online first released. I have tweaked the solution here and there from mentions in the comments. If their is anything that doesn't feel right in the solution then please feel free to correct me and I'll make adjustments.

    To get this achievement you must reach rank 22 on Red Dead Online which will unlock you the 'Small game arrow pamphlet’ This ammo crafting Pamphlet is the first one you can get to make progress towards this achievement.

    Once you have reached said rank, you'll be able to purchase the pamphlet from any of the 5 Fence shops around the world for a price of $350 (14 gold bars)

    Once purchased, you’ll need to open your satchel and manually read the pamphlet recipe which will teach you how to craft small game arrows. To craft small game arrows you will need to purchase 25 arrows (max is 10. So you'll possibly need multiple crafting sessions) from any gunsmith or general store around the online world.

    Then you’ll need to kill and pluck birds to get flight feathers. You’ll need a total of 25 flight feathers. A great place where you can get a lot of birds at one time, mostly flying in packs is ‘Twin Stack Pass’ just below the ‘W’ in ‘New Hanover’.
    When you have all the materials ready. Either find an open bit of land outside of any towns and hold ‘Y’ to rest. Then ‘X’ to craft. Or you can go back to your camp and craft the Small game arrows at the camps fire.
    Find the small game arrows on the crafting menu under ammo and begin to craft your 25 Small game arrows until your achievement unlocks smile

    Or if you don’t fancy going out your way to craft arrows, then you can always wait until you hit rank 28 which will then unlock for purchase the split point pamphlet, an ammo crafting pamphlet for $385 that only requires you to craft any type of ammo (rifle,repeater,pistol etc) at the camp fire.


    Here is a clip of me purchasing the Pamphlet from the fence once reaching rank 28.



    Here is a clip of me crafting the split point rounds. You can use this as an example on crafting the small game arrows. When I recorded this I’d gone for the spit point first as I wasn’t in any rush to bash this achievement out.



    People have reported that you must craft all 25 in one online session as I’ve heard that your progress may be reset quitting out of the game or joining another session. Not sure if this is true but craft all in one session just in case.

    I will update the solution further once I have some more time on my hands. Thank you for your comments.

    HeatCreedI can confirm that the Twin Stack Pass and Citadel Rock large open field in New Hanover is a good place for flight feathers. They stopped spawning for me at some point so I went to my camp in Lemoyne in the swamps west of Saint Denis.

    I found that owls in Lemoyne can have 2 flight feathers per bird making it much quicker.

    BigTymer2047Split point rounds worked like a charm and I didn't need to hunt birds or visit stores for arrows! Great suggestion!

    This one will be very easy, once you get to level 28 go to a fence and buy the split point pamphlet. We will be using this one as it only requires bullets to make, then just go to a campfire with at least 25 of any ammo, go to the ammo tab in the crafting menu and start crafting split points.

    This can also be done with small game arrows at level 22 if you're ok with getting all the materials for them

    STOUTASSASSIN67i just used split point bullets because it didn't require collecting materials.

    KJer25For those of you wondering the Split Point Pamphlet is $385. It is not enough to just buy it, you must then go to your inventory and "read" it. Then simply sit at your campfire and craft away. This is by far the best solution here in 2022 for people that just want the achievement (like me).
