Did I do that right?

No. The multiple hits rule is messy and could do with editing, but the basic idea is that a success by 10 on a RoF 300 weapon is probably not actually 10 hits, but we don't want to roll damage 50-100 times.
Assuming the salvo has enough RoF, a hit by 10, instead of meaning you roll damage 10 times, lets you roll damage once and shift wounding by 10 columns (from /30 to x1.5).
