I think I read once a nice observing report you wrote from somewhere very dark, so I know you can go deep at the eyepiece. All those globs you list are around magnitude 10, so pretty easy for a 4" from pristine skies. Granted though, in the spirit of the challenge, and trying to frame them all in the same field of view, the image scale of each glob is quite small.
