you will be thinking of getting into reloading. Then the caliber of the gun won't matter.

Why do you say that? It might be possible to reduce the recoil on a .45 to the same as a 9mm but the muzzle velocity would be pretty low. If you shoot USPSA, than you probably want to shoot 9mm in production for minor. If you are shooting a .45 you would want to be shooting major power factor so you can get the higher scoring. I admit I've seen people shoot .45 in production. For IDPA there is no scoring advantage to shooting .45.
In any event, I agree that if you stay in either competition you'll want to reload.
