I'm a proponent of 50yd zero. This video does a great job of explaining why.

I shoot at indoor ranges mostly that are only 25 yards. Isn't there a target somewhere the mimics a 50 yard zero at 25 yards?

I do the 25 yd site in,always have, always will.Stubborn ole bastard I guess.
If there is - it is marketing BS. There is no way that a target can accurately compensate for all of the variables involved (caliber, bullet, barrel length, sight height...). You just need to use a normal target and adjust your sights / scope so that the point of impact will be 1 - 2 inches LOW at 25 yards.
The best thing you can do is understand what is happening... If the barrel is level - All bullets start to drop the second they leave the barrel, but the sight line is dead straight. To compensate for this, you point the barrel up and adjust your optic to intersect the arc of the bullet path. The bullet will rise for a distance then drop. Zeroing at 50 yards (on the way up) makes it zero at 300 (on the way down). All of that needs to be confirmed with YOUR GUN AND BULLETS.
