Elite Jannisaries (22) do the most damage vs. Cavalry amongst Hand Cannoneers (17), E. Conquistadors (18) and E. Organ Guns (20) when it comes to raw damage.

A case can be made however that HCs have better accuracy (65% vs. 50%), so they'll actually hit more times than Jannies. HCs don't need to be Elited, nor are they created from a Castle. Plus they have a +10 bonus vs. Infantry.

Conqs also have better (65 and 70%) accuracy and fire much faster (2.9 vs. 3.45; 2.9 is reduced by 15% further). So, they're also hitting more times.

Organ Guns can do more damage if a significant portion of their volley connects, which is easier vs. Cavalry (bigger target). After Siege Engineers, OGs also have the same range as Jannies (8).
