We did a couple on our place. Not sure what other projects you are looking at, but I would encourage a call to your NRCS agent and see if there are some grants/programs you can get into for improvement projects, with water being the primary focus and practice for range improvement.
On ours, we have a 6gpm pump that is fantastic, and it handles deep well, storage tanks and long feeder line.
Give SW TX Solar in Eldorado a call and see what you can do.

I would drop a line down the casing to gauge how deep the well is. This should also tell you where the water line is , if the casing is clear to drop a pump and at what depth.
Nine years ago I went online, bought a complete kit, followed the instructions and it’s still pumping to this day. I installed a switch so it would not pump all the time and waste water.
Good luck.

How much should this cost? Is it easy to set-up yourself instead of paying for it to be done by a professional?
Well depth is just under 400' i believe.
