Your question does not make much sense, can you give some details?

Accurate Molds catalog number 34-220A is a .338 diameter 220 gr. gas checked bullet. Anyone out their using this in a 1886 Winchester chambered in 33WCF.

When I loaded for the 33 Winchester I used Hornady 200gr fp's and the RCBS 200gr fp. They worked pretty well.

Hornady has dropped production of the .338 200 gr FP for the 33 WCF. The RCBS mold is a flat base design, would like a gas check on the bullet.

I bought that NOE mold to use in my Win 86 caliber 33 Win and never got to it this last time up north there. Big help I am.
I see no reason it should not work.My mold using WW drops right at .340 which is near my rifles throat diameter. My plan is to try it first "as cast" and go from there. Going to start with 4350 and work my way into faster rifle powders. I am looking for about 1900-2000 fps with WW (air cooled) and maybe into 2200 WW (water dropped). That was the plan so will be tried my next time up north there in 2016.
This past time up I got sidetracked with a 375 Whelen and a 405 JES in a 336 Marlin. Those two really were alot of fun.

Thank's for the comments on the NOE mold. Would like a bullet just a little heavier. The Accurate design is real close to what I would like.

In your situation I'd advise contacting Tom and getting him started on your new mould. Only way to find out if your rifle will like that boolit is to give it a try.
