From what texts I have read, muskets and arquebuses generally had better penetration against armor at the same relative range compared to composite bows. I think this video offers a good general understanding of the differences in penetration as well:

States that Native Americans often switched to muskets over bows because the accuracy of a musket was better in terms of direct fire, and would be unimpeded by foliage.
