A 20mm cannon typically has an effective range of around 1,500 to 2,000 meters (approximately 1 to 1.25 miles) for direct fire. However, the maximum range can extend to about 7,000 meters (4.3 miles) when fired at a high angle. The actual performance can vary based on the specific type of cannon and ammunition used.

Who will win AH64 Apache Longbow or a RAH66 Commanche?
Since the Comanche program was cancelled in 2004, I'd say the Apache. In theory? No contest: the Apache carries a 30mm cannon, while the Comanche carried a 20mm cannon. Both aircraft are designed to be resistant to 23mm cannon fire, so an Apache could shoot down a Comanche but a Comanche couldn't shoot down an Apache. Both birds can carry the Stinger antiaircraft missile, but the cannon gives the edge to the Apache.

What is the difference between a gun and a cannon?
All cannons are guns, but not all guns are a cannon. A cannon is typically a large diameter firearm, NOT fired from the shoulder or hand, and fires in a direct fire mode (barrel angle less than 45 degrees to the ground. For instance, the .50 caliber machine gun is a gun, but the 20mm cannon has a larger bore diameter, and is not fired from the shoulder. During the first World War, there was a 20mm anti-tank rifle. Despite the size of the bore, it was fired from the shoulder (OUCH!) and is not a cannon. With some artillery peices, those that can only fire in a direct fire mode, they may be designated as guns, to distinguish them from howitzers, which CAN shoot high angle fire.
