Welcome to THR, CCWMAN!
Thanks for taking the time to post, and don't let that be your only contribution to this fine forum. However, the author of the thread stipulated that he wanted a levergun chambered in the same cartridge as his cowboy action revolver, hence the suggestions for carbines in .44 Mag, .454 Cassull, and .357 Magnum.
Your Model 1895 box-mag levergun was chambered for longer, full-powered cartridges like .30-40 Krag, .30-03, .30-06, 7.62x54R, and .405 Winchester. Just a bit too big and powerful for the author's purposes.
Myself, I like the idea of the .44 Special/.44 Mag levergun, but make mine a Winchester Model 94 like the Trapper variant, please. Lighter, cleaner lines, trim appearance, and less clunky than the Marlin counterpart. Better grab one quick, since they are no more as of earlier this year...
