Clark says that he aims to make his mouthpieces at 441 with a 66mm barrel. This makes it easier if you need to pick up an instrument cold or need to play at a little higher in pitch. If you need to be at 440 you could either pull out a bit or use a longer barrel.

I have always found it easier to be a bit above rather than right at 440. It gives me some room to adjust as it is much easier to go lower than to try to bring the pitch up.
