I acctually had a question like this awhile ago involving Bullet Manipulation too and CoolCat explained it pretty well to me, so  I'll relay to you what he told me:

"With bullet manipulation, you can obviously manipulate the bullet as long as it is fired from a semi-automatic firearm and make it always strike the target. With targeting, you need to go an extra step and mark your opponent with an invisible aura (or visible depending on the gallery) like a bullseye and the bullet will follow and will not miss its target. If you have targeting, anytime there is an obstruction between the bullet and target, the obstruction has to be hit since the bullet only targets that aura. With bullet manipulation, you can avoid those because you are the one controlling the bullet. When you control the homing effect, it is pretty much synonymous with bullet manipulation except you can home in on a target with different projectiles like knives, arrows, and other objects (including bullets)."
