Here's a video made by Bottom Dealin Mike, showing how he shortens 45-70 brass to 45-60 for the 1876.  Mike slips sometimes and says 40-60, but it's not! :D

Shortened 45-70 brass works well in most 1876s, although if the headspace i close the rim of the case will have to be thinned from the front edge in order for the bolt to close, so check the fit before you cut up a basket full! ;)
