Here are a few charts.
Widefield approx 14 deg field - Note crux in lower area for orientation
Then two narrower fields - approx 6deg for finder view, and 1 deg to approximate EP view.... limiting magnitude about 13 I think for EP view....

Hope this helps your hunt..... courtesy of Starry Night Pro.
