I have the XDm 4.5 in .45 ACP. Only drawback I Have had so far after about 200 rounds was occasionally the larger JHP 220 gr. didnt want to feed. Took it to my local gunsmith and the next day it worked great. He just polished the feeder ramp. 500 rounds later and no issues at all. I did go back to the 180 gr gold dots for defense carry. I can get almost 1150 fps if I home load without risking the frame from too much pressure.
To be honest I expected to be a little disappointed going from a Sig 256 in .357sig to the XD in .45 ACP but with the exception of the greater recoil both due to caliber and lighter frame it has performed very well.
