I used to shoot a lot of 45, but I've downsized to one 45 acp, and now have 4 10mms. The 10mm is very versatile for loading levels, and you can fit more in a magazine. I find it to be my goldilocks cartridge for handguns.
That being said, if using in home defense, I'm going to download it to 40 S&W levels. I keep muffs by my bed, but that isn't going to save my cat's hearing. And a 200 gr bullet chugging along at 850-900 fps will be fine in my opinion.
But to be honest, as much as I like my 1911s, they are not my preferred gun for a 10mm. The P220 is, or more likely an EAA Witness if I had one. CZ pattern guns work better for me than any other models I've shot.
