From what I can see, SA333 is a carbon manganese steel (some grades have some nickel), but the weldability should be the same as SA106 or SA53.

You won't be able to tell the difference by looking at it. 333 is a fine grained carbon steel material and comes with specified impact testing, since 333 is for low temp applications.

If you have an impact test regime 333 is the way to go, though not for nukes.
