The lighter bullets tend to have a much higher velocity making them shoot a bit flatter, also with the higher velocity is the almost explosive type fragmentation when they hit small varmints. One downside with the lighter bullets is that wind affects them more.
For punching holes in paper it does't matter all that much, at least to me.
