Let me start off by saying that I have probably sighted in excess of 100 rifles in my lifetime and am very comfortable getting them to zero at 100 yards.
I always "get close" at 25 yards then move to 100 and dial it in. All of my scopes have adjustable turrets so I zero at 100 and dial for different distances with dope.
Last few times I have sighted in I have been trying to establish 100 zero at 25 but haven't been successful.
For example I sighted in a 30-06 this weekend that the dope chart called for zero at 100 and -0.68 at 25. So I sighted +/- -0.75 low at 25 then moved to 100. I was 4.5 inches high at 100. I dialed 4.5 inches down and hit bull.
What am I missing?
