Default Sight in procedure?

I have a Knight Revolution and a T/C Encore that I will be scoping and sighting in the next few weeks. I will be putting a Nikon Omega 3x9 scope on both guns. My question is, what zoom level should I use to sight in? I haven't sighted a gun in years and usually just practice at the zoom level I hunt at, which is normally wide open since I hunt wooded areas. Should I zoom all the way out for a more precise aim at 100 yards? Does zooming have any affect on the POI?

I should mention, I will get the scopes bore sighted and will start at 25 yards before moving to 100. I also plan to take along several bullet/sabot combinations to find the one that works the best. I will also be getting a Lead Sled rifle rest too.
