I’m right handed and he was left handed, as was the rifle he had me use. For me, shooting a left handed rifle right handed in BR competition was a natural.

I’m right-handed and prefer to shoot a RBLPRE setup (Right bolt, Left port, Right eject). I shoot short-range benchrest (both RF and CF) with no contact on the gun other than my trigger finger.
In fact, one of my BR rifles uses off-set scope rings to help keep my cheek off the stock. Shooting free recoil means the bullet has left the barrel before the butt touches my shoulder.
Like I said, YMMV. Use what works for you!
