No if the same force is applied on a more massive object it won’t travel as far. I understand what you’re getting at, the heavier bottle will be less affected by drag. Likethrowing a paper ball, as you throw it harder you get diminishing returns. So assuming you have a scalable strong arm, yeah a full one CAN go farther, but I think strength is the real limit with a beer bottle vs with a piece of paper it’s drag.
