According to the 2010 version of the Harris (1996) catalogue, it has [Fe/H] = -0.75 and is probably a core collapsed cluster. VI photometry by Ortolani et al. (1998) showed a red HB morphology. Thus it is unlikely that there will be any RR Lyrae or Cepheid variables. The existing photometry does not extend to a faint enough level to delineate a blue straggler region. Discovery of the variable star in NGC 6380: V1 Fourcade et al. (1966) with x,y coordinates and an ID chart The RA and dec for V1 were drived by Samus et al. (2009). No further data are available for this star. ======================================================================= References Fourcade, C. R., Laborde, J.
