Rechambering a handi from 45-70 to 45-90

Hey got a ? for anyone who knows the answer, If I were to rechamber a handi from 45-70 to 45-90 can you still shoot 45-70s in the new chamber? I don't have a handi in this caliber YET! but its got me thinking.

Sure, just be sure to clean the chamber well after shooting 45-70 in it before chambering a 45-90 round. The longer jump to the lands when shooting 45-70 in it doesn't help accuracy tho, my solution was to have one of each, well actually four 45-70s and a 45-120.  ;)
