Shotguns and Coyotes

Does anyone know where to buy 3.5" #1 or #4 buckshot? I picked up a few boxes of 18 pellet OO, but I'm always looking for interesting shotgun shells.

Side note, my local home hardware had about 8 boxes of turkey load 3" 2 oz federal premium buffered copper plated # 4's. 2 of the boxes were marked $15.99 or $16.99, can't remember and the rest were $22-23. So I asked and he told me that if the cost price was lower than that, I could have the ones marked lower for their sticker price. Home hardware's price was ~$15.50 on the box so they honoured me a couple. Sweet, got my turkey shells for spring :) (or anything else that needs a good destroying)
 
Went out yesterday and patterned my Extrema II - Kick's Turkey choke installed (.670 constriction) using cheap Winchester 3.5" Super X #4 Magnum buckshot. At 70 yards I was able to get (on average) 27 of the 54 pellets on a yote' sized target.

Anyone have an idea of what the kinetic energy of each individual pellet would be?
