im using machstdmill ive no idea how to get it back to normal mach screen set

I seem to have a recollection of certain drives having the switches the wrong way around, but if that was the case, you'd be out by a far larger factor.
Run the test like I said, and you'll know for sure if it's the microstep setting causing the numbers to be wrong or not.

I think you should be able to swap back to the standard screen by simply selecting the standard screen, however I've never used MSM. Regardless, I prefer to calculate the steps manually, as that way I know if something isn't set how it should be, or I've got a number wrong somewhere.

If you run machloader create a copy of your setup its a good idea to have a standard screen setup to troubleshoot, and you could run autotune.

Are you sure not mixing Motor tuning and mach default mm's and inches 26x25.4 = 660 would only be 20% out closer than 400%.

just managed to find and use the autotune which is a great feature.

but still not right, a full x movement of the table now reads 282, so better but not right.

some thing is very odd here

You are using a smoothstepper so that I suspect generates pulses rather than PC, I would look closely at the smoothstepper settings if there is a multiplier or something there, some do for servo's to get up to speed. Some good videos on warp9 for setup I saw when considering the smoothstep

ok set the drivers to 32 steps and half current

used the auto tune feature and doing a full x travel I get 550mm, soft limt isn't working for some reason so I need to look into that
