A Telrad and RACI finder is the best combination. One points you to the sky and the other then shows some fainter field stars within the Telrad 4 deg field.

I use a Telrad and 80mm RACI finder with an eyepiece that gives a 4 deg field riding on my C9.25. My beefed up GM-8 (CG-9 1/4”) handles it just fine. I have Telrads on all my ‘scopes and I will invest in the Stellarvue F50 or F60 RACI finder one day to put on my Dob. The F80 although light still makes the Dob a bit top heavy.
