Nicely stitched, Rex. Bloated stars are always a challenge. You can control them partly during stretching, e.g. with MaskedStretch in PixInsight, and you can shrink them in a variety of ways (deconvolution as suggested by Slawomir, or PI's MorphologicalTransformation.) Chris's suggestion of HDR techniques is worth trying too. There's no single magic bullet but several techniques worth trying... possibly even combinations of them.

Cheers,
Rick.
