Jon,

I think it's really player dependent. Against bad, loose or unknown players, I limp a lot and try to play small pots in position. I find a lot of people won't raise out of the BB as much as they perhaps should. Against other good/aggro players, I'll mix in more raises with the limps. With 15-20 BBs you have room to fold if someone comes over the top. My general raise size is 2.5x BB but different amounts will have the desired effect against different people. I feel that the 15-20 BB range is awkward for me, as well, and I know of a few other top SNG players that struggle with what to do here also. I'm interested to hear what people have to say.
