I would buy the Canon 1.5x or 2x extender for the 70-200 f2.8. Or if you have the budget, the big Canon 400mm. You seem to have all the rest.

Is there any reason to keep the 55-250? Or should I sell that lens and the 75-300? I know they are not worth a ton but no need to have them taking up space in the bag or closet.

With the extender I’d say yes but I’ve never worked with these lenses.

Canon's extenders won't work with either of these lenses. There might be a 3rd party version that will but I wouldn't expect much, especially on the 75-300. The IQ on that is already bad, any extender would make it truly unuseable.
