    I get confused with point of aim and point of impact.

    If my rifle's point of impact is shooting to the right of point of aim, I crank my windage to the left, to move my point of aim onto point of impact.
    The opposite applies if I adjust by using the front sight.

    In a similar way, if my point of impact is below the point of aim, I crank my elevation up.

    Or am I backwards?

    If the carbine shoots 6 inches to the left at 50 yards, the front sight needs to move to the left a touch, OR the rear sight moves a touch to the right?

    I'm confuzed and appologise for offering backasswards info, help me out here!
