I'm a big fan of the .45 ACP, but lately have grown fond of the 9mm as well. The cute little saying, "shot placement is King, penetration is Queen, and everything else is (non relevant)" is probably pretty accurate.
I also have to agree with the 10mm fan who pointed out that the 10mm can be loaded from bunny poot to very serious levels. I own a 1006 and wouldn't hesitate for a moment to use it in a SD situation. It's a bit big and heavy for everyday carry, but makes a hell of a bedside gun. Like a full bore .357, it WILL shoot through walls, doors, the neighbor's house, etc. Gotta be a bit careful where you aim it.
