How do you zero your rifle? let’s discuss approaches

[Alan]

I’ve seen a wide range of zeroing methods across the community, and it’s always interesting how each shooter develops their own routine. To help newer members learn and compare techniques, I’d like to hear how each of you approaches zeroing?

I zero at a few different ranges: 50, 100, and 200 yards, so I'm ready for anything when I'm hunting

I usually start by getting a rough alignment at close range so I’m at least on paper, then move back in steps to confirm. Once I’m at my preferred zero distance, I record everything so I can repeat it later
