My 338 edge ai likes 92.5 gr h1000 a federal 215 gm primer 2850 fps. Also in my opinion dont waste your money on nosler custom brass the primer pockets get loose real fast .

H-1000 is the best place to start.
Mine likes 95 grains at 2840fps.
Velocity variation is so low my Chrony acts like it is broken.
This might help you...Shaun is a great guy and is very helpful.

Sean has more (arguably) trigger time behind the Edge than anyone.
I would start with his recommendations first.
US869 gives me 2960fps with very good accuracy.
If you intend to hunt with it your cold bore shot is not as repeatable as H-1000.
Retumbo looks pretty good, but I need some more trigger time.

Have a read through this thread, it goes through that quite well.
