Ok cheers Richard, sounds about right, given the star I could see at the location your finder circle indicated, was near my visible limit, so I was thinking 6.5ish..? Given I can juuust make out the mag 6.75 star inside the coal sack, which is sprobably "my" naked eye limit? Younger eyes, without glasses, should be able to crack Mag 7 here for sure.
Cheers
