How far can you fling a tater with a hand held cannon. That isn't a hybrid

Its all a matter of your definition of hand held.

A pneumatic cannon could theoritically fling a spud several miles. It's just impractical.

I'd guess 200 yards is quite likely with a fairly big 2" bore cannon with a powerful valve and enough pressure.

Do you mean on you can just hold, or one that is self contained? (As in on board co2, etc.?)

When I think hand held it's really no longer than about 24"-36" and isn't very heavy, hand held should be comfortable to hold and small enough to be able to carry. My .5"x24" barrel, 2"x6" ball valve blows marbles over 250'.
