    You're good at picking the toughies.... can only get to 868 here:

    50-2=48
    3 x 6 x 48 = 864
    864 + 7 - 3 = 868

    3 3 6 9 5 10 343

    My one is possible. :)
    I'll solve yours if you want, or give a solution to mine.

    can only get to 930 or 928

    (75+8+6+4) * 10 = 930 (-2)

    Anyone getting the 929? or is it an impossible one?
