I still have a time remembering if the "up" adjustment on a scope moves the bullet up/down to the crosshairs, or moves the crosshairs up/down to the bullet??!!

now to really confuse you
when you turn the elevation knob up , it moves the crosshairs internaly down in the field of view, this forces you to raise the rifle muzzle up to get the crosshairs back on point of aim, thus raising the point of impact.

up/dwn is the change in bullet impact.

This is why, when sighting in a gun using the "move the crosshairs to the bullet hole" procedure, you turn the adjustment arrows in the OPPOSITE direction of what they say...
