Observable objects in order of difficulty?

I have just downloaded the "Bambury 600" list, of which I have seen a few with the naked eye, and a few more with binoculars.

I have only recently acquired a 10" telescope, and of course my observing abilities are those of a complete beginner. So I'm wondering if there's a version of the Bambury list sorted by observational difficulty? I appreciate that this is highly subjective, but certainly there are easy bright objects such as the Magellanic clouds, which anybody can see in a dark location, and other objects which require trained eyes and very good scopes to see anything of.

Thanks!
