I would say try a few, at least hold them in hand to see what works for you. I have been very happy with the Sig P320 line up so their 10mm offering is what I would choose first. Comes ready to go with a DPP footprint which you could adapt to RMR if you would like. Glock is also popular with the 40 MOS. Ergonomics are not there for me, it feels like holding a 2x4 and I have largeish hands. Both offer good capacity and reliability versus metal framed alternatives.
 
Hard to tell you a brand, as I like all the ones I have, but since most 1911's are basically identical, go with what you can afford. I have a Springfield armory that is hands down one of the most accurate pistols I own. My Night Hawk, Colt and Dan Wesson are pretty accurate as well.

I have a Sig XTen mounted with a Leupold DeltaPoint pro and love it. Flat laid out a coyote at 50-60 yards with a 165gr Gold Dot from Underwood. My brother shoots a G40 with a Burris fast fire on it and it would be hard to pick between the two aside from grip comfort. I have recently entertained the idea of an FN 510 after handling one at Cabela's, but the XTen does all I need it to. I am sure a Kimber Eclipse would be quite a contender if a 1911 platform is preferred.
 
Cheap, premium, semi-custom or custom?

If you just want to shoot 10mm in a decent gun, it is hard to go wrong with:

Bruin - Dan Wesson Firearms

We took note of the growing demand for 10mm handguns, and we responded with the Bruin. The first long-slide 1911 from Dan Wesson, the Bruin comes with a 6-inch barrel, which allows full-power 10mm loads as much time as possible to use their powder charge. The Tritium fiber optic front…
