Check out the ammunition from Double Tap. I have the 320gr. cast loads and I have fired them from my Smith Mountain Gun. They are not pleasant to shoot but the gun will handle them. As stated earlier any of these heavy loads will show greater wear on the gun (and even heavier wear on you).
But the number of rounds you need to shoot will not be a problem. I purchased two boxes of the Double Tap 320s; shot 30 rounds to see where they shot and to make sure the pressures did not effect cylinder rotation or extraction. I still have more rounds than I HOPE ever need.

By the way if you really expect to run into a bear who doesn't want you around, carry a carbine or shotgun.
