Buy recommendations Next gun advice.

Im looking to buy a lever gun for plinking and target practice. So far I have a ruger 10/22, cz 457 and a benelli supernova 12 gauge. I've got my eyes on the marlin 1894 or smith & wesson 1854 in .357 or a henry supreme in .223. Any advice on which one would be better overall? Leaning towards the henry supreme at the moment since ammo is cheaper.

Both are good and will do you well!  Slightly different  357 and traditional tube magazine vs 223 and box mag, but both can take a scope or red dot or just irons. The Supreme will have further range for sure.  I'd say hold both and see which you Like the look and feel of better.

Ya i've I've handled all 3 guns in the store. they're all extremely nice. ammo cost and caliber versatility will probably be my deciding factor.
