I picked up a 6.3 reducer for my SCT's and then read about people using it with refractors. This was an experiment using it with my Antares 127mm. I figure I'm shooting around 800mm fl with this arrangement.

Thanks guys. It's kind of funny that it turned out at all as I wasn't expecting much! I'm surprised that the combination works as well as it does. I don't shoot widefield so having to deal with all the background stars was a new experience for me... I had to tone them down so they didn't overwhelm the entire image!
