The 8400V rating is most likely a no load voltage at the terminal of the charger. The impedance of the wire will reduce delivered voltage.
I have a Horizont wide impedance solar charger from Premeir1 and it runs a 3/4 mile single high tensile wire fence at 5000 volts. I have a Gallagher S20(Ithink)and it"s about the same. 10,000 feet is nearly two miles so it doesn"t surprise me that you are down to 3500 volts. It should still turn a calf if the soil is damp, however. In dry ground, you may need to run a separate ground wire about 4 inches below the hot wire because you can"t use the dry ground for the return circuit in some cases.
