I know they make several different levels of price, and I assume, quality. Tell me about your experiences pro and con with any of these.

I’ve got several of the Helos BTR 2-12s with the Mil reticle. I’ve run them on everything from .22 cal PCP air rifle to 7 WSM Kimber Montana. They’ve tracked like a champ, I like features like: illumination, pop-up (lockable) turrets, and the 6x mag range.

The only drawbacks are country of origin, and weight.

I have 3 of thee Argos 2-12s two have BDC reticles and one a illuminated dot. I love the large FOV on the bottom end(I like to call them close) and enough Xs for anything I'll be hunting. I can't comment on how they do dialing as I'm a set and forget putting them on rifles I can hold on fur as far as.i want to shoot. They do sight in and move as expected plus hold zero well.

The 2-12 Helos on my .22lr has been dialed hundreds of times. It has tracked as precisely as I can shoot, returns to zero perfectly, and has maintained zero for close to 2000 shots now (a solid 30-40% of which have been dialed).

My Ares ERT has been solid, and I twist a lot on the knobs for the past 2-3 years. I can read mirage and see bullet trace which helps me spot my own misses for second round hits.

I like the glass and coatings better than my Gen 1 Razor and Gen II PST.

I have a Argos 2-12 and I believe a Talos 3-12x40 that are both solid Scopes. I really like the Argos but the Talos is great for a cheaper scope. I also have a pair of Ares Binos that I really like. I don't think you will be disappointed unless you get the cheapest which I think is a Neos or something like that.
