Whichever caliber your CCW weapon is chambered in.
Some will say get a small caliber handgun because there is less imprinting, but with advances in holster design, I've seen full sized large caliber guns carried.

Originally posted by E Pluribus UnumDuring Y2K my neighbor and I were talking and he said he had a basement full of water and canned food. He asked if I had stocked up and I said that I had. I told him I bought a 12 guage shotgun, a .308 rifle and several bricks of .22 ammo.
He is an anti-gun guy and he said. "Well, you can't eat ammunition". I replied with "When I'm starving to death with a case of ammunition, who's door do you think I am going to knock on?"Comment

Awesome thanks man. I'm hoping to get a USP .45 in the near future, so it looks like i'd need size 16. Yours doesn't leave a noticeable print?it depends on the holster type you prefer, frankly i prefer the Bianchi Belt holsters i have a 6D Size 15 holster from them for my S&W 4506-1 its the snap type of holster
