    OK random plucky:

    2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 50

    Target: 737

    Kind of stumped... so I'll register a closest just in case.

    (((50-4)*8)*2)=736

    Gotcha!

    50 * 6 = 300 - 2 = 298 * 10 = 2980 / 4 = 745 - 8 = 737!!!

    The force is strong in this one :D

    ((50/(8/4))*25)-(9-5)=621

    Just in case you were wondering, this is the solution i had for it :

    8 * 5 = 40 + 25 = 65 * 7 = 455 * 2 = 910 + 1 = 911

    Not it, but again close
    (25+10) * (6*4) = 840 - (8/2) = 836

    Well time to put you out of your misery.

    4 * 6 * 8 = 192 - 25 = 167 * 10 = 1670 / 2 = 835

    You got the closest attempt Pal so i guess its up to you now.

    I'd have posted one up last time but I wasn't the first to solve it.

    K here's mine:

    1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 75

    Target: 479

    Hopefully it's not too easy.

    75 * 6 = 450
    10 + 4 = 14 * 2 = 28 + 1 = 29 + 450 = 479

    too easy ixoy :)
