well you would get more cals in this way but if you are eating Oats between meals your food is never going to disgest properly. I would increase your meals to 8 per day if you can eat say every 2 hrs you could even do the protein shake in the middle of the night process...

i am not a big fan of weight gainers because they are mostly empty calories a good blended protein drink with added EFA's in my oppinion be a better choice.

you mention that your diet is about 4000cals.
what is your daily diet ? could you post up what you eat on a typical day.
you will probably find that when you detail all of your food over a day or week you are not getting the cals you think you are.
how is your 4000cals split up (protein, Carbs, Fats)
