Default Pistols v rifles Q

Why do rifles the same calibre as pistols do more damage?

I can see rifles spewing out rounds quicker (RPM) and shooting more (30 in a mag verse 6). But on a round by round basis, why the difference?

Is it because rifle rounds have a bigger charge behind it (longer case???)???
