Thank you for the warm welcome!
I just updated the firmware to the latest yesterday and could not get the full 300mbps. It did help the speeds by about 10mbps. I would rather try the full reset another time if possible. The office is normally full of people at different times of the day. Is there a setting that could throttle speeds somehow?

Technically, yes there is a way to throttle the speeds. You may check the QOS settings if it is enabled. When you are trying to do the speed test on the SRX5308, how many devices are connected to it? Have you tried connecting only 1 PC? Please make sure that you are connected directly to the firewall router and not in any panel or switch when doing the speed test.

QOS is disbled and I am directly connected to the Firewall. We also have our switch connected but I am testing directly through a hardwire.
