That sounds about right.
It's generally a good idea to check-in with your connecting carrier in any event so they can ensure your bags transfer. When I've transferred to OZ, TG, etc. off another carrier's flight, they
always want to see my baggage claim check. And when I recently connected to OZ F, they affirmatively tracked down my bags and stuck F tags on them (did this at both LAX and ICN).
