tardis86 Report post Posted January 21, 2016 What is the most common oblong punch size for a standard gun belt? I want to make a few belts but don't want to buy a bunch of oblong punches at once because they aren't cheap. thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
byggyns Report post Posted January 22, 2016 The hole size is more dependent on the buckle than the belt. I have a Tandy size 7 (9/32 x 3/16). The buckle I use is pretty heavy duty, with a wide tongue. For a lighter buckle, I'd use size 5 (1/4 x 5/32). That would fit many western buckles, most dress buckles, and most buckle sets for smaller 3/4" to 1 1/4" belts. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
