Default lever or bolt action, why one or the other?

Time has come for me to get a new rifle. Primarily used for Deer, both open spaces and woods.

What I am wondering if from a funtional standpoint there is any real world difference between a lever and bolt action. Other than differences in calibers. Accuracy, reliability, ease of cleaning/use? I don't want this to become a religious battle, but I would like opinions.
