Horsemen, has to be, I mean sure, angels have shown more powers, but lets look at the facts, firstly the horsemen aren't creations there fundermental forces, granted there not as old as death (probably) but there still ancient, Pestilence is a old as bacteria, and as the first life form, the places him in the billions, War is presumably as old as the leviathans, as Roman mentions clawing his way to the top, making it clear that the leviathans thought, and Famine is also as old as them, as he is the embodiements of hunger, that makes them all older than angels. Secondly as Fundermental forces they can't die, they can't be killed unless you get rid of all war, famine and pestilence from the world, which we all no will never happen.

Its also my belief that the horsemen all posses greater powers, based on the strength and destruction, of strife, hunger and infection, which the represent, they mearly didn't get a chance to use them, as hte situation that they needed them never came up, and they were under Lucifer's beconing call.

Next I would like to point to the only occasion that the horsemen and the angels met, it only happened twice, and in both cases the angel was Castiel. Granted he was weakened in Season five, after being unplugged from heaven. But he still smashed several of Zackariah's henchmen afterwards, so he was clearly not that weak. And in his meeting with Famine, who was shown to be the weakest horseman, he defeated him in minutes.

Now take that logic, if the weakest could break him so easily, then so could the stronger ones. Granted he beat Pestilence, but I think that was down to pestilence, underestimating him, as by that point his powers were reduced to that of a normal man, so he didn't expect him to resist the same illness that casued humans to collapse.

Finally there is the montarge of angel weaknesses, the blood sign banish them, enchoian signs keep them out or hide your from them, angel blades kill them, so does holy fire, higher demons can beat them, so can levaithans ect. The horsemen have none of these weaknesses, there ownly weakness is there rings are required to focus there powers, and hold there form, which to me suggests there more powerful.

As such that's why the horsemen are the stronger.
