Bauer, all these old German scopes have neither increments nor clicks built into their elevation turrets, all adjustments, both elevation (by scope turret) and windage (by scope mounts)are by trial and error. They have one thing in common: turn the "disk" right to make the gun shoot higher, left for "down". The disks were then to be marked, often with scratches, for the distances the individual gun was sighted in. Many scopes have a seperate washer with a single line screwed on top that may be moved seperately without diturbing reticle adjustment. these wer meant to be aligned after sighting in the rifle. In your case, to make the gun shoot about 7" higher, I would turn the elvation disc clockwise for about 1/8" and shoot again to see how much the poi has moved, then guess how much you have to move again. OK, it is time- and ammo consuming, but an old-style boresighter/collimator helps a lot.
