I've got a loop of Stihl 33rsc that I worked on a bit last week. The chain had been rocked pretty bad and needed some help. I always used the regular Stihl file holder but got myself a 3/8 husky filing guide and wanted to try it out. I started by filing the gullet back a little ways and then using the guide. I noticed the cutters have a little upslope in the gullet to cutter area. Does that matter? Hook seems alright when compared to new.
The husky guide is a very nice tool and would recommend it to anyone. I also think the files that came with it cut a little better than the Stihl files.
