What you are seeing is very common and relates to ballistics.
All projectiles fired from any gun begin to drop the instant they leave the barrel. The line of sight is above the barrel so we must elevate the barrel so that the projectile crosses the line of sight, traveling in an arc. The projectile thus crosses the line of sight traveling in an arc above it. All this while, gravity is working to pull the projectile back to earth. Both projectiles will hit the ground in exactly the same amount of time regardless of velocity from zero the basically infinite, the difference is the faster projectile will travel further in that same period of time. Eventually, the projectile again crosses the line of sight, this time traveling from above it to below it. The point where they cross this second we call the Point of Impact.
A faster moving projectile will have a lower arc (trajectory) and will cross the line of sight farther from the muzzle than a slower projectile. Thus the POI will be slightly lower anywhere along the line of trajectory.
