CD, 236BD, run, 3A > 236B, 623C 260 340 40% Near Corner Another option to hitconfirm a CD near the corner. Won't work if directly in the corner. the 214A ~ (delay) P extension is possible here, but variance in how long you need to run can cause the timing to change, making it even more difficult.
236BD, 236C 175 80 15% Anywhere Simple conversion from stray 236BD hits. You can use 623C at closer ranges instead.
