i recently got a mold for making 11mm gras but im unsure as to weather or not i need a 446 sizer or 447.

NVM the question on the mold CBE said it is in fact for grease grooved bullets

Is this the heeled mold with the .453-5 diameter stop ring?

either will work, just what chambers best.

I would recommend slugging the barrel.
years ago, I owned one that was WAY over spec (.454), I'm not sure how rare (or common) it is to be that oversize? but that's the first bit of info I would want, when trying to figure out what size boolit.

Slugging the barrel is always the best starting point.
