Can someone recommend a good scope zeroing kit for an AR15?

But seriously, what are you looking for a bore sighter?

A $30 Bushnell laser bore sighter to get you on the paper and a few more ammo  rounds to find and confirm your preferred zero.  I don't know what else you may mean by "kit".

Remove the upper and pull the bolt out, lay it on a stable bag, look down the bore at something 50-100yd off
Line your reticle up with whatever you see down the bore.

Put it together and shoot.

This gets me on paper 100% of the time.

Most laser boresighters are absolute garbage.

You can bore sight an AR without any special tools.

1. Separate the upper from the lower and pull the bolt carrier.
2. Set the upper on a stable base such as a cleaning stand or shooting bags.  The less the upper moves the better.
3. Sight down the barrel on something easy to identify.  I use a stop light down the street.
4. Adjust the turrets so that the scope is sighted in on the same thing you are looking at through the barrel.

ETA: Typed too slow.
