Gentlemen,

My reloading experience is probably negligible compared to yours, so I am not questioning your statement that a heavier projectile (which would presumably be slower) produces a higher point of impact. For the life of me however, I cannot understand why that would be so.

To the layman it would seem that the longer period of time an object is subject to gravity, the more it would drop. Can one of you provide an answer that does not require an advanced degree in physics to fathom?
