Default .22 scope adjustments

I have a .22 rifle and I am trying to adjust the scope.

Unfortunately, I am limited to 12 feet distance at the moment.

I just made a great .22 target/catcher from a 12x12" 1/4" steel plate
and wood, so I can now work on the scope.

At exactly 12 feet of distance, impacts very reliably end exactly 1
inch to the left.

The scope is this:

An adjustment of 1/4" MOA means 1/4 inch per click at 100 yards. 12
feet is 4 yards, so one click means 1/4*4/100 = 0.01 inch. So, to
adjust the point of impact by this much, I would need to adjust the
scope by 100 clicks?

This does not make sense to me. Would it suggest to you that something
is seriously wrong with the scope, or the way I mounted it?
