Yeah, should have said all drop relative to the point of aim/sight line I suppose, wrote for an audience more familiar with guns than HN probably is. Things are usually reference relative to the sight because that's what you're aiming with so movement relative to that is how you'd adjust your aim to actually hit the target.
There's not really any mechanism for lift though, the bullet is not an airfoil and is traveling directly into the airflow so there's not going to be any lifting body effects either while it's in stable flight and after that it's tumbling so there might be some then but it will be chaotic and inconsistent and you're just as likely to have it pushed down if the tail is up.
