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?

 

[Leonard]

I zero my rifle the way I learned...get into a steady stance, control your breathing, and make small changes to the scope.

 

[Jimmy]

When you're sighting in, use a steady rest, also pay attention to your breathing, and only change one setting at a time

I shoot 2 round at a rock in the berm.
I measure from the POA to the POI with my reticle and adjust accordingly.
I put 1 round on paper, measure and adjust again. Then I shoot 3 to confirm.
All of this is at 100yds, prone with a bipod and rear bag.
