Jen, 8" will get all the Messiers under a dark sky, your 6" should get nearly all of them. Remember Charles Messier was using a smaller scope with poorer optics than yours!
You may have trouble with M74 and some of the lower ones to the north (M39 for example) but yoiu will be able to see dozens with no probs.
Make sure you get out while Sagittarius and Scorpius are still in the sky, there are heaps in that little area.
