If cost and light recoil play into it I'll choose the .22 l.r. and my Ruger Bull Barrel Target Model. Almost as accurate as a rifle and hours of fun.

For the serious stuff such as CCW, dispatching feral dogs, and competition I go with the .45acp. It's accurate in my Kimbers and Custom Colts and I don't have to wonder if the critter, plate, BG is going to react to a good hit.

Just my 2 cents. Jack
