8250 is what I look for in my 700, that seems to be the sweet spot for me. I run 10-64's and an almond spring running from 1000'-4000'.

Between 8200 and 8300 for me.

what could cause lose of rpms in the deeper snow, clutchs were cleaned new spring in primary, the only think i havent done is put a different belt on yet was gonna try that next

Is your current clutch set up original? You may just need to freshen them up with new springs (both primary & secondary), weights, delrin washers, and re-adjust alignment, deflection, etc as needed. A new belt can also make a difference even if it doesn't look worn. I'm not a clutching guru, I depend on others on here and my local dealer who has always treated me right.
