Assuming that you are referring to birdshot fired from a shotgun, there are several variable factors. The greatest factor will be the shot size- the larger the pellet, the further it will travel. #6 birdshot, when fired at about a 45 degree angle above the horizontal will travel ABOUT 300 yards. Please note that it is not harmful at that range, and that is NOT the effective range for hunting.

There are a couple of different answers, depending on what you mean. In general, a handgun bullet can travel about a mile on average, if the gun is pointed up at an angle and fired into the air. Most handguns can easily be shot accurately at ranges of 50 yards or less, but many skilled handgun shooters can shoot accurately at 100 yards, and some can even shoot fairly accurately up to 200 yards.
