I Have been toying with the idea of picking up a marlin 336 or an 1895 cowboy but I am kind of leaning towards the 336 because of ammunition prices, what are your thoughts on the marlin 336. Instead of getting a marlin another option would be to get a Russian sks and deck it out withall tapco acessories.

I really like the 336 platform, the foregrip is bigger than a M94 Chester and it has a pistol grip. Mine is a model 375 in .375 Winchester.
It averages 2" @ 100 yards from the bench with 200, 220 or 260 grn bullets.
Those that don't like levers, have probably never hunted with one. In the dense woods of western WA. they are right at home.
