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.

Can't tell for Smith and Wesson, went with Marlin 357 SBL. Build quality is top. I don't have any complain. The only reason is that S&W was new in this market (lever action) and Marlin well established. That's the only reason but not because I heard bad things about S&W.
