What is the factory firmware for the R7000??
When i reset. my R7000 back to factory settings it puts me on firmware V1.0.3.80_1.1.38... but I am almost positive there are much older firmware versions than that. So why is mine only going back to V1.0.3.80_1.1.38

Because it's not "going back" at all?
"Factory reset" is a misnomer. It's a _settings_ reset, and has no
effect on the firmware.

Visit http://netgear.com/support , put in your model number, and look
for Downloads. (For older versions, under Firmware and Software
Downloads, look for "View Previous Versions".) Find the kit(s).
Download the kit(s) you want. Read the "Release Notes" file for
instructions. (In the User Manual, look for "firmware", and,
especially, for a topic like "Manually Upload Firmware to the Router".)
When that fails because of a deficient User Manual, try:
Why do you want anything older (or even that old)?

Because I soft bricked my router and I am trying to flash back to stock so I can flash back to XWRT.
