The custom sizes have poor lead times.

You can definitely make this work with a longer or shorter cylinder, don't forget you don't have to actually use the full travel of a cylinder (and can externally set the travel).

You'd want some mechanical adjustment of shooter position anyway so that you're not remaking parts to tune shots (separate from what you can achieve with software).
