Everyone talks about "zeroing" a rifle, but there isn't just one zero. A range instructor breaks down the three zeros every rifle shooter should know, in plain English.

- Basic (factory) zero: your sights set to their factory reference
- True (shooter) zero: your real come-ups, found from prone and written in a data book
- Battle sight zero (BZO): how full gear and plates shift your point of impact
- Why the prone position is the most stable and mathematically accurate
- Knowing your data cold so you can dial back to your zero anywhere
