Remington has made 40X repeaters, for use in the US National Match program.
I've not done it, and I think that if I had a 40X single shot, I wouldn't alter it, but there would seem to be a couple of options.
One would be to mill the bottom of the receiver to duplicate the M700/40X Repeater receiver. This would be more complicated than it appears at first glance.
A second way would be to mill a simple slot, which would clear one of the center feed aftermarket detachable magazine systems, like the PT&G.

I own both single shot and repeaters in 40x. I was wondering why one would spend the money to do it. I have some new
1995 built single shot 40x barrelled actions. I got the older CMP walnut stocks with a "barrel tuner built in" in front
of the stock to mount them in, if i ever use them.A repeater walnut stock would cost a lot on its own just to do a conversion.

I bought some of those single shot "barrel tuner" stocks from GPC years ago. Use 722 style trigger guards. I believe they were from rimfire rifles.
I have considered milling one of these stocks for the PT&G unit which accepts AR magazines; have a 1:8 Lilja .223 barrel on a 700 action.

A gun shop near me brought in a 40XB Tactical that was floating around for a while as a sample (unfired).
They brought it in for a good client of theirs that wanted to see it.
It came in a soft case which was set in a hard case along with a couple of other things which I can't remember at the moment.
The issue with this particular rifle was that it had a pretty obvious blemish on one side of the barrel and there wasn't anyone interested in paying near full price for it.
