I'm stuck on which to get. The Sig Sauer .45 I've had my eye on for a looooooong time is roughly $1200 MSRP but a little more than $800 in excellent used shape. The Walther .40 my dad has recommended to me runs for about $800ish MSRP and maybe $500ish excellent used.
In your experience, which would provide a better shooting experience (at the range!). I've been told that since the .40 is a smaller caliber you can get a few more shots off in the same time and have them be more accurate than the .45 which will have more recoil. I've used a Colt 1911 .45 multiple times, a .357 mag and also a 22 (great differences). I'm curious as to how the .40 will compare to the .45. Many reviews have stated the Sig is one of the most accurate .45's on the market.
Also, when I OC I will have hydro shocks loaded. Given that fact, I think the .45 will have more stopping power than the .40, but which would be the best choice overall?
Thanks for your input.
