Yes, up means up and down means down. If your shots are 2" low and 1" left and you want a direct hit on the bull, on most scopes you would go 8 clicks up and 4 clicks right at 100 yards. If you are shooting 50 yards than it would be 16 and 8 clicks. At 200 it would be 4 and 2 clicks. If your scope does not have click adjustments but has friction adjustments, guess.
I would double check the 50 yd data. if you do 16 clicks at 50 yds, that is still 16 click at 100. 16 at 100 would be a 4 in adjustment. For 50 yds, wouldn't it be 4 clicks?? half the distance, half the adjustment.
Otherwise, you have gotten correct advice.
The data is correct the closer you are to the target the less movement acheived, therefor more clicks are required to gain the same movement as you would get at 100.
