Feeling good in the hand is a great thing, but it's quite a bit more of a psychological benefit than a physical one. Most Sigs feel good in my hand because I have a lot of hand filling. The problem is, all that hand filling isn't that great when I have to contort my fingers and change my grip to reach decockers, mag releases and so on. Glock 19s fit my hand almost perfectly..but I can't shoot them well for crap. The most important fit is making sure your thumb knuckle isn't being abused every shot you take, and that you can reach all needed levers/buttons. After that, it's all up to training, fate and preference.
