Harrowed vs. Normal weapons

I know all the stats appear the same and the only obvious difference is the color/name but has anyone compared a hallowed to a normal mode side by side with equal light? Today while running a strike with a friend he mentioned his 312 QT was hitting mobs for ~1200 precision shots. I have a normal mode QT that is 315 light and against the strike mobs was hitting for about ~1020. Not only was my normal QT 3 light levels higher than his, my over all light level was 315 where as his was 308. Perk wise our QT were identical in every way and we made sure the same perks were on. We tested it some more with always making sure we were as close to the same distance and taking test shots on the same mob type but consistently my damage was lower. He tried equipping a 305 normal QT and then his damage was only about 20 points per hit below mine but much closer. [u]Me[/u] Light: 315 Normal Qullim's Terminus: 315 Average hit on a heroic strike Valus Ta'aurc: 1020 [u]Friend[/u] Light: 308 Harrowed Qullim's Terminus: 312 Average hit on a heroic strike Valus Ta'aurc: 1200 Unfortunately I don't have any identical hallowed/normal weapons to check this myself (except the shotgun which obviously is not the best for this). To my surprise I haven't seen anyone make a video comparing a hallowed to a normal weapon besides showing the stats appear the same. If anyone has tested this please let me know. [u][b]***Update***[/b][/u] Performance between harrowed/normal are equal. They are definitely identical damage. I'm not sure why originally my friends was hitting for a different value than mine but I found someone else with identical everything and harrowed/normal hit the same. This is also consistent with what others have noted as well.
