I had old Backpacks and random hunting gear and tools in my barn. A homeless guy took 2 backpacks,a tent an axe and some clothes and headed down the road. Luckily my neighbor had seen him a few miles from our road earlier that day walking with nothing and when he saw him with stuff his spidey senses went off. He approached the guy and asked him if he had anything to sell. The guy layed out all my stuff and my neighbor bought it for $15 and told him he never wanted to see him on our road again. Then his wife after seeing my name drove over and asked if anyone stole from us recently. Great neighbors are priceless and he fought me on paying him back the $15.

My Suburban was broken into in a hotel parking lot in Portland (I know, big surprise). They took a tool bag, dumped out the tools and stole the bag. Same with my camcorder, left the camera but took the backpack.
The crazy part of your story is the scope kit from the cupboard. At the end of the day, a bunch of people that steal have very, very serious mental problems and/or substance issues which makes their actions rather unpredictable.

The fact that they bypassed a lot of other stuff and strictly took the shooting oriented stuff (left powder, bullets, and ammo though), leads me to believe they knew it was there, which is really frustrating to me. I'm not flashy when it comes to that stuff. My neighbors know I hunt, but it's not like I broadcast it openly to everyone around all the time. My garage is always open during the day because my kid is always in and out, so sometimes I wonder if delivery drivers are scoping me out.

No, no cameras. I've considered it in the past, but have never really felt the need. Looks like that's changing.

Check your old photos, they can be used as proof of ownership. Most policies are RCV replacement cost value. The carrier will pay ACV up front less deductible. Once the items are replaced you submit receipts to collect the difference between ACV and RCV.
