You will have to shot to find out. Each gun shots different loads different. 4's are larger than 5's or 6's so there is less shot in each shell of the same weight but they will carry more energy. there is also 4/5 shells that have a mix of 4's and 5's.

Hope that helps some

5's are for people who can't decide if they want to shoot 4's or 6's

There are 220 pellets of #6 per ounce, 170 of #5 per ounce, and I think it is 135 of #4 per ounce. Going by memory here, but it's at least close.
