My favorite mouse to replace the MX518 is also a Logitech, the G502 Hero, and if you're looking for a new mouse this Black Friday the good news is that not only are they still extant, you can pick one up from Amazon right now for just $34.99, less than half the regular price.
The Logitech G502 Hero is built around a 25,600 DPI sensor with a 1,000 Hz polling rate, which in less technical terms means bang-on precision and accuracy.
It's got 11 buttons, which frankly I think is a bit much—I use four of them and that's counting the mouse wheel, but I suppose it never hurts to have more—and they're all programmable, with onboard memory storing up to five unique profiles.
