Are you curious about what range to zero it, or how to physically zero a gun?
I'm guessing you're talking about the front iron-sight riding a bit low ?
The combination front sight post/gas block/upper sling swivel mount is mounted on the barrel held in position by the circumferential clamping force exerted by two screws that pass through the bottom of the band that goes around the barrel. This mounting method allows shooters to mechanically zero the front sight by loosening the mounting screws and physically rotating the front sight post around the axis of the barrel..........The front sight post is adjustable for elevation, and can be rotated using the tip of a 5.56mm cartridge.

The internet can answer all your questions. 
Long story short:
move the target to about 25 yards
(1) fire three shots.
(2) Based on where your group ends up, make the required adjustments to your sights.
(3) Goto (1) until your group is about 1" directly below your point of aim (at 25 yards), then:
(4) Move the target out to a more appropriate distance, lets call it 100 yards and go back to (1). When you are finally sighted in at about 1" high at 100 yards, thats a very standard/generic sight in for almost all calibres.
