Cast Shim for Super Sport - Lefty Shooting a Right Handed Gun

[Steinmaster]

I just purchased a right-handed Super Sport shotgun. I shoot left-handed. I adjusted the drop to fit me and changed the cast shim and lock plate from the DX (right-hand) to SX (left-hand). Was a correct changing the cast shim to an SX since I am shooting left-handed? I have not patterned the gun yet. Thanks

Yes that is correct. Adjustment for cast on (left) or cast off (right) is made independent of whether the shotgun action is left or right.

In my Monty's Manual it says the shims and locking plates should have the same nomenclature. Example: for my left-handed Monty I am using the drop shim "D" a cast shim labeled "SX" and a locking plate "D SX". That is what I understand from the user's manual. In addition, if I need to change the cast shim to "DX" will that have a damaging effect on the recoil tube?
