While forbidden today, it was not uncommon, decades ago, to drive hunt hares with rifles. The .22 LR / .22 LRM were most often used but lacked stopping power on running hares, hence the preference for a little more punch. Such a chambered double rifle was the most flamboyant way to go, and a Francotte at that !

3 shots do not make a group, they show a point of aim or impact.
5 shots are a group.
