I think Hodgdon just came out with a powder, aimed at loading that round. https://www.google.com/amp/www.ammoland.com/2016/11/introducing-new-cfe-blk-from-hodgdon/amp/?client=ms-android-motorola
No experience with it personally, but may give it a look?

Ain't those Leverevolution rounds the best!? Big fan of those, shoot many in my 45/70 Marlin Cowboy. It puts a thump'n on things for sure.

Yep just came off three year membership myself. Called them today to sign up for another year. Oh the money I pay to play this game... But oh how I love it.
I have one of these rifles myself. They sure are perddy. Mine I use for deer hunting and pistol caliber long range side matches. I am sure your wife will enjoy hers!
I got lucky a couple of times, picked up an unfired 1894 Marlin with 20" octagon barrel in 44-40 for $550. Special run done for Davidson. Next time I went I picked up an unfired 1894 Marlin Classic in 33-20 for $500. But have not seen a deal since.
