I think 41 sounds a little high, but that's me. I actually find the OFX Sharpen Edges tool is better for this kind of thing.
One way to do this: using a Fixed Node Structure, make sure that all your 250 shots have the exact same number of nodes. Make one empty and call it "Sharpen" (or "Sharp" or whatever). Go to the first shot, and make a change in this one node on the Color page. Then, select all the other clip Thumbnails, and with only this Sharpen node highlighted, choose Color -> Ripple Node Changes to Selected Clips. Only that one node will be changed, and it'll be identical in every shot across the board.
One thing I'll warn you: I think sharpening is overrated, and I think many people have a tendency to over-enhance shots and are oblivious to the artifacts and problems it causes. It's actually pretty rare that I ever add sharpening to anything; I often soften more than anything else (at least in a mask or something). If I do need a little sharpening, Contrast Pop is one tool that can work well. Sharpen Edges is another, particularly if you confine the sharpening to a very specific place and qualify the effect carefully. Subtle is good.
