Five shot or more groups are fine for target shooters. I'm content with, and prefer, 3 from my hunting rifles. It is true anyone can get lucky. I've shot a few 3 shot groups in the .1's, but don't pretend they are typical. My average group size with multiple 3 shot groups, shot on different range trips over a period of months in varying weather conditions is my concern. Firing 5 shots tells me more about how well my rifles barrels resist changes from heat. I'm not at all concerned with that when my lightweight sporter barrels will never see more than 2-3 shots at a single game animal. The 1st shot from a cold barrel is far more important to me
