I read a rule of thumb that you should spend as much on optics as you do on the rifle. I have a SS 10x42 which I am happy with but what would be the next logical upgrade for a custom AR15 for long range varmint? How much do you have to spend to get a noticeable difference in a fixed scope? I just can't see myself spending $1500 on a piece of glass. (no offense to those who do) I wish I had that kind of money.

You will have to spend considerably more money to get better than the SS. How much would you consider spending, I'll see what I come up with.

To me the next logical upgrade is to a variable scope but you have to decide what features you need, possibly one of these:
