Default 329pd ammo recommendations

I just bought a 329pd to carry while bowhunting. Where I hunt is loaded with black bear and cougar, any ammo recommendations?

I carry a 329 while hunting too. Im currently using speers 200 gn Gold Dot Magnum rounds in it. I dont have black bear in my area so you may want to use a heavier soft point or a good cast bullet. The problem isnt so much can the gun handle the heavier load as if your hand can. Also welcome to the forum, im sure others will comment on their prefered loads as well.
