Anyone got the load that will give the same velocity for 7.62x51 from I4895 41.5 grains for WC844 powder with a Sierra 2200 (168 grains bullet if not that one)?
Not so simple. A particular load in one gun can give very different results in another gun. Also WC844 is bulk grade powder and it's imperative that you work up a load for your lot of powder in your gun. Bulk grade powders are a different animal, and you can't use anyone else's load data. Or you shouldn't anyway if you want to reach old age.
Another problem here, the 5.56mm NATO round uses WC844 and it's WC846 that used for the NATO round you're loading. It's much more common to use WC846 with the 7.62x51 round. In either case, if you don't have load data you can use AS A REFERENCE load data from H335 for WC844 and load data from BL-C(2) for WC846. Every lot of those none canister powders is a little different so you will have to work up slowly until you achieve the velocity you're looking for.
