The gun is a moderate sinker with the stock shaft but when tried with RA 7.5mm shaft its really heavy in the hand. However it floats after the shot.
I tried it with 2x18mm bands and short RA shaft 150. The shot goes up. I attribute it to the overpowering and the bad RA flopper.
I'll stick to 2x16 bands from now on. The original shaft with 2x16 shoots straight.

As I added the reel the gun is not balanced, the muzzle is lighter than its middle section. So I guess I'd use a strip of wood under the barrel to add the buoyancy and increase the overall mass to fight the recoil.
