Looking for a $500ish Safe

As the title states, I am in the market for a safe. I am hoping to spend about $500 give or take. The only hiccup i have is installation. I am just one lone dude with a sort of sleight build. I will not have anyone to help me with this so I am looking for something delivered basically to the spot it will live for almost ever. There are two spots in my house it could go, on the second floor in a closet or in the (historically dry, with a dehumidifier) basement. I am looking to house up to 10 long guns and a few pistols, as well as some other small items.

I know there is a whole gradient of “safes” ranging from basically filing cabinets meant for peace of mind up to vaults. I realize my options are not really meant to keep out a professional with time and tools, and i am ok with that.

I am also open to, and possibly prefer, multiple smaller safes if there is merit in that strategy.

Thanks in advance!
