Depends on what year it was made. If we're talking about the model 1895s Buffalo Bore lists their loads safe in Marlin 1895s made after 1972 which would imply they're not safe in ones produced before.
From Buffalo Bore's website on the 45-70 page
"Its use should be limited to the following firearms:
All Marlin 1895 (1895 Marlins are all model 336 actions, chambered in 45-70) iterations made since 1972, all Browning 1885 and 1886 copies, Rossi Rio Grande, New England Arms Handi Rifle, T/C Encore, ALL falling block actions made of modern steel such as Ruger #1 and #3, Shiloh, Christian and Pedersoli Sharps, Henry Lever Action Rifles, all Winchester 1886 iterations made since 1915 and all Siamese Mauser bolt actions."
