I have the XD in .45 service and .40 and 9mm in sub. The .45's recoil is very managable but i can get quicker follow ups with the 9mm. The 9 feels more like a pop gun after a few rounds of .45. Now that little .40 is a snappy bitch and took a little extra pracice but now she is my best freind. The .45 was much easier to shot right off the starting line than that .40.
YMMV
