Hi!
Can you please give us some more information as to the specifics of your project so we can give a more specific answer to your question? Thanks!!
In the meantime, there are many variables which affect the distance which a cylinder can travel, including the actual dimensions of the cylinder and the speed (which is affected by weight) as well. Look forward to hearing more about your project!
