    6.3mm or 7.5 mm eyepiece for Orion xt8?

    I would like to know which would be the better eyepiece for viewing Saturn and its rings with an xt8. I have an 2x barlow and was wondering if the 6.3mm would be too much magnification (about 380x). The highest theoretical power is 406x, so would a 6.3mm be pushing it. Thanks..
