the problem with a relatively fast 5 inch will be CA. There are only a couple of refractor designs that seem capable of keeping the spot size within the diffraction region over much of the visible spectral region. For narrowband though, it should be a reasonable approach. Better bet might be a 6 inch fast Newtonian with a decent coma corrector.
