I did get a visual sighting last night in my 12″ Mewlon but skies not the best, a bit claggy, NELM mag 5 to mag 5.5. Comparing to field stars I estimated it to be about mag 13.3. Comparison stars:
Brighter than GSC 01976-0429 mag 14.1
Fainter than GSC 01976-0815 mag 12.2
About the same as GSC 01976-0125 mag 13.3
