I have the above named rifle in near new condition that won't cycle Hornaday Leverevolution rounds properly. Is there something easy for me to adjust etc?

This is of interest to me also. The Lever Revolution doesn't cycle reliably in my Marlin either. I'm not impressed with it.

I had a Marlin 1895SBL that cycled the 325 gr LeverEvolution perfectly.

oops double cycle!

Just googled this question and see there has been many problems with cycling and performance. Some have suggested replacing the follower in order to shoot that ammo.

That is definitely the case with Marlins. They come with a different follower now to address this issue.

I didn't see anything specific to my rifle but now I wish I wouldn't have pruchased 3 boxes

I don't care for the LeverEvolution anyway as it fragmented when I shot it. I like the plain, old 405 gr Remington.

FYI to anyone interested. I emailed Hornaday and their response was load a flat nose or round nose bullet followed by a leverevolution if you don't want to buy a new follower. What a bunch of shit.
