Which Bergantino cab for me?

I'm about ready to pick up a used Bergantino, but can't decide which one. There's an HT115 about three hours away. I also have a line on a used HT210, or there are a few HT112s on Reverb.

I play a Carvin SB61 short-scale with either flats or half-rounds and will temporarily be using my '68 Fender Bassman as a head while I save for something more powerful. I don't need anything ridiculously loud right now. I never play slap bass. I mostly play rock, punk, funk, and motown styles.

Anyone have any advice? I'm open to other models as well, but my budget is $600 max, and around $400 is best.

Thanks in advance.
 
I should also add that I'd love for this cab to function as my only cab for the near future. I won't have the budget to buy an extension for awhile. I'd love to get a CN212 or HDN212, but they're out of my budget. I'd love something lightweight, but also know that neo Berg cabs are probably out of my budget.
 
Portability and speaker surface area.
I prefer 212 and have a 112ht/112ex combo but if I were in your situation I would get the 210.
It would you more output than the 112.

Thanks for the help. I just ordered the 2x10. It's from Guitar Center used so I can return it if it doesn't work for me. I hate buying from them but they often have good deals on used gear.

Part of me wants to spring for the HT115 too as I've heard they go well together but for that money I'd rather get a 2x12.
