I'm a righthander and firing it from the left shoulder does cause some cases to zip past your face so close you can feel the heat and sometime you can be hit on the right cheek. It wasn't recommended practice but could be done

Good that is the answer to the question I was looking for.

The first few rounds were scary but after you got used to it it was just a distraction, that was still a problem for me because anything flying past that close to my eyes tends to distract me a lot. I must admit, I almost dropped the rifle when that first hot case hit my face though.
We only had the mag loaded with 10 rounds, so it was 5 rounds individual and the last 5 was in a burst all done so we would know what it was like should we ever need to fire from the opposite shoulder.
My general attitude to the experience - F**k that, I'll stick to my right shoulder
