The 41 grains is likley a faster burn powder than imr 4350, the faster the burn, the less you need to reach max pressure.
A 140gr 7mm08 load can use powders as fast as the 4985's all the way to the slower 4831's. I prefer the 4350 type burn rates in my 140 gr loads. Depending on the 140 gr bullet, even beyond 46 grains working up with a chronograph.
