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.

i have the S&W 1854 in .357 and i love that thing. its light, it takes .38 special for cheap plinking, but you have the option of that 357 punch if you wanted to take it into the bush and hunt with it. highly recommend getting into reloading if you shoot lots. under 20$ to reload 50 rounds, when factory is like 60$ (357 rifle rounds)
