Turning it clockwise generally raises the point of impact, while counterclockwise lowers it. For windage adjustments, find the windage knob or screw, usually labeled "L" for left and "R" for right; turning it in the appropriate direction moves the point of impact horizontally. Always make small adjustments and test your shots to ensure accuracy.
