Impressive.
Though may I point out this...? (all fired at roughly the same time)
Shang Chi dodges bullets. Cassandra Cain dodges into the path of bullets in mid air, then out again, while smiling 🙂
When it comes to speed feats, I don't think you'll find someone that tops her out of martial artists in either universe.

There's this one scan of Iron Fist where he swats a flurry of darts out of mid air.. The poster arguing for the feat claimed dartguns can actually have higher velocity then bullets, or something...
I've also seen him step out of the path of after-fired bullets by mere inches, while claiming doing so was taxing his Iron Fist...

i think steve wins, but i do think he is less skilled to be honest. Just give him the edge because he is around the same level in speed and agility slight edge to cass, but hes just much stronger and way more durable.
Cass isn't a slouch in strength either.. She did punch through bullet proof glass bare fisted, and took down a meta level character who kicked Batmans arse, to name a few...
But even if it can be proven Steve has the strength edge, I think Cass's extra normal body reading ability pushes her over the top. It's generally one step below precog, to the point where she can tell what's on someones mind simply from what they're body is subconsciously doing, like low level telepathy... Body reading is actually her primary language, and used to be her only method of communicating...

you kno, skilled martial artists can read peoples next moves irlfun fact.
Body reading is basic for martial artists, but as I said Casses is extra normal. In her case, it's more of a super power because of how it was integrated, depriving her of all languages until the ability to read someone like a book became engrained in the part of the brain usually dedicated to processing words.
In effect, people are literally shouting out what's on their mind from little subconscious cues no normal person could notice, right down to how the skin subtly ripples along their body, as was explained in her series. If you're in love, for example, it doesn't matter how much you try and hide it... she'll know.

Yeah, I think Taskmaster has a similar thing going.
Cass displays a similar ability to pick up fighting techniques as well, like how she managed to stick fight on Oracles advanced level, despite never having picked up stickfighting in her life. She got it all from simply watching her as they fought.
