How much do you want to spend? Are your hands small or large? Do you want a SA, DA, DAO or so called Safe-Action? My choices would be the following:
SA, Browning HiPower or quality clone like the FEG
DA, SIG Sauer P226 or P228
DAO, S&W 5906
Safe-Action, Glock 17 or 19
IMHO you cannot do better than a SIG Sauer P226 for accuracy. If you want something more compact get a P228. You'll not find better out of the box accuracy and reliability.
