I'm with the .45 ACP crowd but would recommend the XDm because of better ergonomics, better support for the case with a match grade barrel. Then you have a practical defense pistol and when you want power above the 10mm, put a heavier recoil spring in and shoot .45 Super.

230 gr. bullets in .45 Super go where no 10mm will tread, making it a better choice on hogs and such.
