Running an RG-6 coax from the house to the garage might be easier and its length limitations will not be exceeded. And since you'll be running it in the same conduit as AC power, any coax should be double shielded and grounded at both ends, but it will be easier to terminate than fiber. Of course, you'll use a media converter (ethernet to coax) at both ends.
I thought all of the MoCA converters had the same length limit as Cat5/6? Roughly 300’.

For $200 difference and empty conduit that would be an easy pull, the pre-terminated fiber seems like an easy win. Definitely won’t hit the bandwidth ceiling. And if the digging/trenching is done and conduit run, contracting out the wire pull and termination/testing shouldn’t be too bad either, then the connection is solid for sure.

Edit: found a coax SFP converter that says it will do 500m over RG-6, but the cost of the converter easily outweighs the cost of fiber vs rg-6, which explains why it isn’t available anywhere. https://www.transition.com/wp-conten...x-Overview.pdf
