But in a handgun, barrel time affects the point of impact. The lighter/faster bullet gets out of the barrel before the gun recoils very much, so it strikes lower. The heavier/slower bullet is later getting out of the barrel and so the gun can recoil upward more and the bullet strikes higher.

Yup, right on the money.
