Haven't played since 6th and am wondering the best size on these guys. Was 5 or 15 now I am hearing 10 as they can go to ground if I am correct. Appreciate the help.

Thus, After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men are seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd

Fearless models can't go to ground in 6th edition, so 10 is a good count for lootas. If you're FOC constrained and want to pack as much punch as possible, 15 is still a respectable option. I'm not sure I'd ever take just five, as elite slots are too valuable in the Ork 'dex.
If you're sticking them in a battlewagon, naturally you'll want to take as many as will fit.

I take 2 groups of 5 simply because that's all I have and I don't have anything else to fill those slots at low points level.
That's usually at around 1,000pts or less though

If you take 10 you can go to ground behind an Agies and claim 2+ cover you can only snap fire though but who cares because you hit on 5+ normally so hitting on 6's isn't a huge nerf.
