If you perform an internet search for that scope and look at the images, every one of them has a windage knob on the right and a parallax knob on the left.
That's how it was designed. Why do you think it should be different?

That would be right. Turning to the left would raise the shot.

Bushnell probably put a windage knob on the elevation adjustment.
Ask them to send you an elevation knob. That's happened a few times. |

That's considered a cover by many manufacturers. Try explaining it to them with terminology other than "knob".
Better yet, look at the instructions and see what they call it.

Please explain what Bushnell could have done to make the OP happy.

Here is the manual for what I think is your scope
The image in the manual with the cover removed clearly shows the turret marked with 'UP' on the elevation. |
