From most obvious to more calculation stuff

Damage type: HKS300 Thermal means you will have trouble vs certain bosses ie: wicker due to its 100% resist means HKS deals 0 damage, also boss egg in zombie pods. While hornet does physical damage means you will deal stable damage and have no fear at all since no boss have 100% physical resistance.

Rarity: you can find HKS after level 10 / red on level 40+. For hornet you will find it above level 40 (ultra rare on 30) / red above level 85 (ultra rare drop on lv 70) due to this it is logical hornet would be more powerful since it is a more late gun.

DPS and stats: Hornet is better, augmented or not. This is since HKS requires 3 augments slots to be on par with even only 2 augment slots hornet. If the hornet is put on same augment level, it will be a really big gap on terms of DPS. The only thing in stats which HKS better is only ammo cost efficiency. Hornet ammo cost is 50% more expensive in total cost.

HKS300 red max dps is coming from deadly, tenacious, and overclock. Hornet red max dps is using deadly and overclock only. If the third slot is used for reload speed / pinpoint and you also used it to replace tenacious on HKS300, there is a really big hole there.

Too lady blue, I have to mind you that you done your DPS counting wrong

Notes in mobile version the gap is much bigger due to fact thak HKS is nerfed to only base 2 RPS (4 with overclock) this is same nerf to ria 20 striker
