The reason your lighter bullet - traveling at a faster velocity impacts low is TOTALLY RELATIVE to your original zero with the heavier, slower bullet.

During the impulse of recoil the lighter, faster bullet spends less time in the barrel and generates less relative recoil than the heavier slower bullet - so it impacts low relative to your initial zero.
