Roger like all boys had probably been told numerous times by adults not to do things. "Don't throw stones or you might hurt someone," would have been drummed into him to such an extent that even though there were no adults present to stop him or chastise him Roger subconciously obey their conventions and threw the stones wide. He probably wasn't even aware that he was doing it, he probably really wanted to hit Henry with the stones and hurt him but he simply couldn't do it, not at that point in the story. Later on, as his true personality blossomed and he could behave exactly how he felt thanks to the power of face paint to divorce a boy from his own actions, Roger was able to tumble a huge boulder at Piggy with no regards at all to conventions or the possible hurt he was likely to inflict. He could do it simply because he wanted to and there was no longer anyone or anything that could hold him in check and stop him.
