Wikipedia is your friend, the size you are looking for is #4 Buckshot. You can get it in almost any gunstore for reloading.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buckshot

By the way, if you plan on using this in a cloud/vortex, Ask the salesman for the hardest shot you can get, Tungsten is best, then steel. Don't use lead shot, 1. It is poisonous to the environment 2. It will deform in the chamber and ruin your barrel/vortex block...

MrCrowley, wikipedia has been shown to be about as reliable as the Encylcopedia Britanica.
Probably moreso for the articals that arn't politicaly-oriented...
