Please explain your issue is in as much detail as possible.
Went for the secret Beta Strike achievement where I need to destroy an enemy Orion mech with an AC20 headshot.
I managed to do so on an Orion-K in a skirmish match (note I made Vindicator Mechs with only AC20 to make sure nothing else didn't killsteal) but it did not trigger once I had grinded myself to that headshot.
I figured there perhaps would be a problem with the Orion model in the game - since there are both Orion-K and Orion-V mechs. I spent the Next hour grinding through Orion-V's and I was Quick enough to capture a screenshot as I killed it, but alas; no achievement either!

Steps to reproduce the issue
Play skirmish matches and try to kill Orion's through headshots?
My tactics is to copy the Orion mechs, apply an AC weapon with no ammo, and fill the legs with ammunition for other weapons (and remove its armor). Also removing all the armor from the head.
Then in the match shoot off a leg, and get bonus for the called shots to the head when they're knocked down until you're lucky. Repeat for profits and eternal glory.

Interesting follow-on to this.

I'd never heard of the Beta Strike, so, after reading it here, when I encountered an un-Guarded Orion-V in my campaign, I took a Precision Shot at the head, won my 18% roll, and head-shotted it with an AC/20. There was no in-game announcement of the Beta Strike achievement, but Steam does show it as Unlocked on Sept. 3rd.

Configuration:
Steam, Battletech 1.1.2, Mac OS X 10.11.6, with Steam in Offline mode at the time of the achievement.

I'm not sure if my behavior even constitutes a bug.

OP, you may want to check Steam to see if the achievement was awarded without an announcement -- in my profile, Beta Strike is listed right after Double Kill, just above It's Just a Flesh Wound, which is above the four "Maxed out a Mech Warrior's ..." stat awards. Let us know.
