Default Sirius-B

How many of you have seen Sirius-B at some time in your life? The period
is about 50-years with the separation last being the greatest in 1975.
It's currently about 6" (arc-sec) and slowly increasing since the year
2000 but Sirius-B is much fainter than Sirius (A), making it a
challenging double. What size scope might reveal it now? Have any of you
tried the 'wall' method described on the following website?
