10 shot groups are where it is at for REPEATABLE, consistent results

To be honest, the biggest variable in most group shooting to test stuff like seating depth, charge etc, is actually the shooter himself...

Three shots test the load. Five shots test the shooter. Not many shoots can consistently hold the same shoulder pressure in a hunting rifle for 5 shots.
