How would being proficient with a .45 ACP be any different than other calibers? It has a lower recoil impulse than 9mm so for a lot of people with the increased mass and weight of the gun it is actually easier to shoot.

I find this to be the case as well. At 15 feet I stack rounds to the point I can target repair stickers from greater ranges.

A lot depends on the load of course. The people I have trained are generally more comfortable with a 9, even a lighter one, than a 45. It's all very subjective. I think they are more comfortable with the 9 and thus shoot better earlier. Just one guy's opinion and what I suggest to students initially.
