Depends how much you weigh and how hard you ride, but px12's are generally accepted as a solid choice when on a budget. Of course there are multiple options from every company that would work fine for you.
What's the budget? Are you only in the market for new bindings? What do you ride your DIN at?

How much do you weigh, how tall are you and how aggressive are you? Do you mainly ski park or are you skiing all mountain as well?

Depending on you weight, px 12's are gold, especially you can get a version with metal reinforced toe & heel pieces

Those are the raceing series, right? I thought those only came in the px14, and that every px12 was the same as far as metal content

^ Thats what thought, but I have a pair of axial 2 120's on my old skis, and a new pair of px 12's from backcountry. For some reason the Axials dont have any visible metal, but the px's toe and heel pieces are metal housing.

A 10 din binding would work pretty well and put you close to the mid of the range but most 10 din bindings won't be super burly but honestly at your size you will prob be ok. But you can go for a 12 din and they will be great for you. You will be down the bottom of the din range but that's fine, and they will last forever for you. Have a look at mojo 12, sth 12 driver or OS, px 12 ect there are a ton of good 12 din bindings as they are the bindings which people buy the most. Go chat to your local shop and see what they have deals on from last season if your trying to save money.

If your din is only at 6 I think marker squires would fit well. The din goes up to 10 and I would say they are an all mt / park binding
