I think with flats it's divide your draw by 5.5, with tubes by 6.

 

So a 40" draw with flats is just under a 7.5" active length. Add an inch and a half (or so) for tying to pouch and forks. and cut at 9".

 

That will more or less max them out, though, so add a little to extend the bandlife (you can always trim it if needed and re-tie to increase power later)
