We use Belden stranded cable (8243?  I am at home, so I am not sure), but it is
22 ga stranded.  We punch those down all of the time.  By the way, if you are
buying a punch down tool GET A GOOD ONE!  We bought a cheap one from Black Box
(where we buy our blocks) and it really was unpleasant.  I finally coughed up
the $80 or so to buy the spring loaded version from Jensen Tools and my tech
will now speak to me again!
