In many contexts it's preferable to write it out instead of using percent
repeats. If it's a long passage then it's frequently written pretty much
like you had it except with the x3 at the repeat sign.
I'd second this.
But from numerous experiences (from the performer's POV) I can tell you
that you somehow have to make clear if you want the passage to be _played_
or _repeated_ three times. This is usually unclear and leads to useless
discussions in an ensemble unless the composer has explicitly stated his
intention (which probably has to be written out in a sentence).
Interesting, what is the difference?
