With 167-176 there can be up to 36 Beagle Boys:
176-176 176-167 176-716 176-761 176-617 176-671
167-176 167-167 167-716 167-761 167-617 167-671
716-176 716-167 716-716 716-761 716-617 716-671
761-176 761-167 761-716 761-761 761-617 761-671
617-176 617-167 617-716 617-761 617-617 617-671
671-176 671-167 671-716 671-761 671-617 671-671

Not that I've seen them all :-) but I think I've seen more than 6 beagle boys
in the same Barks
story.
