Sure, to get the difference in range requires GM judgement anyhow.
To me it makes sense that spotting spell casting could be done farther away than spotting the aura (or whatever) of a passive mage not using his ability.
I would also give a bonus for bigger spells, say +1 Per for every point the spell costs to cast (before reduction for high skill) with the default magic system.
As for Increased Range Mod vs. Acute Sense it depends where your going.
Acute Sense is cheaper on most detects and makes it easier to spot small or hidden things. Increased Range is likely more expensive but at larger ranges more efficient.
