you need to shoot bigger  a 22 is like a bb gun...
Seriously. .22 is tiiiiiiiiny. If you learn how to shoot with a .22 you will be able to shoot anything bigger easily. If you start out with a big bang caliber, it is very expensive to get enough practice (unless you reload your own) and generally will introduce you to "Flinch" which plays hell with accuracy. Shoot the livin' holy crap out of a .22 till you get real good. after that, a .357 revolver is a good choice because you can practice with .38 specials for lower recoil then move up to the magnums in the same gun for fire and bang.
a .45 auto is big and slow, so it has more of a push recoil instead of the "Snap" you really feel with the high velocity rounds.Shooting is fun!

only kidding. I knew what you meant. smaller bullet, higher velocity=more energy.

yeah, actually i should correct myself....first time shooting was a year ago with a Glock 21 i think it was. i was pretty fun to blast the crap out of everything for a while but there was just nothing in terms of accuracy.
i just considered the .22 my first "real" shooting because i was trying to be accurate. it was really weak but i didn't care, so much fun!

.22 are so cheap to shoot so you can practice longer. accuracy is all about smoothness and consistancy. you can't get it right without a lot of practice and that means ammo.
there is a saying...better a hit with a .22 than a miss with a .45

It definitely does not suck. It is, hands-down the best wallet I've ever had. I transferred everything except some reciepts from my old tri-fold, and I can hardly even tell I'm carrying it. As opposed to the old wallet, which I had to take out of my pocket when I was sitting down, because it was so uncomfortable.
Again, highly recommended 8)
I've had the All-Ett for a few days now and I gotta be honest, it's pretty nice. I don't have find places for my big ass wallet while I'm sitting down which is great. The only downside is that it's too thin and digging cash out is a little annoying. They should have made the plastic alittle stiffer. But the importantly, no more butt pain (outside of the daily anal penetration perpetrated by my supervisors.)

Andy Wrote:digging cash out is a little annoying
Agreed. Then again, anything impeding me from getting at cash quickly is probably a good thing.

I don't think its "plastic" per se - more like spinnaker cloth. Personally, I'm glad the wallet is so pliable - I think that makes it much more comfortable.

I think I may itry one of these too. What convinced me was to simply take my wallet (which I do not think is too big) while I was driving and noticed a big difference in comfort. It was not UN confortable to start but much more comfortable after taking it out.

This morning I took all the gift cards and other useless chit out of my wallet and even that made a huge difference, my wallet only weights 3 lbs now. I am still intrigued by this all-ett - i dont get how it works, i mean how many differnt ways can you stack credit cards and junk - must be magic
I have ten plastic cards + crap and I actually can't feel the all-ett
Two feet.
12 plastic cards here, plus another 5-6 business/discount cards, plus several bills (mostly of the "1" denomination). And I sit on this wallet all damn day. In fact, more than once I've forgotten to take it out of my pocket before throwing my pants in the laundry basket, because I can't tell its there.
My two feet.
15 plastic cards, and other random slips. Sometimes I can feel it, but I can sit comfortably. Sometimes I don't even notice it's there.

ahha! Finally Comcast got our connection working. Yay.
Jess and I mostly got money towards our trip, but Jess did hand-make me something super cool:
