Question about buckshot vs. shot

I have a question I know someone will answer here. Is #4 shot different than #4 buckshot. I just patterned my new jm pro 24 with #4 shot heavy field load at about 15 to 20 yards more like 15, it shot really well with about 8 inch diam. circle. this jm pro is a 24 inch with a mod. choke installed. I thought I read that #4 buck has 27 pellets, but this federal #4 shot has at least 70 to 80 pellets. Thanks in advance for any insight on this, Matt
 
This should help give you an idea of the difference:

Sgammo.com has #4 buck in standard, and low recoil, from multiple manufactures. Just pick your flavor. And their shipping is much much cheaper than Midway
 
Also available at Sportsman's Guide.

ETA: Never mind, you probably already bought some by now.
