What is better 9mm or 45 calibre?

The 9mm came into popularity because of it's high capacity magazines which hold between 15-20 rounds where a .45 holds between 7-10. the .45 fires a 185-230 grain bullet, the 9mm about half that. The stopping power of the 9mm is minimal compared to the .45. The bullet diameters are .45 inch and .38 inch. The 9mm is less expensive to shoot and recoil is minimal which makes it a good choice for target shooting, the .45 is a little more costly to shoot and has a bit more recoil. It would also depend on what you want it for, to shoot target and such the 9mm will do it for you, for defence I would take the .45 over the 9mm alrhough the 9mm is a fair defence piece. they both have their points, Good luck choosing......
