That will be nice. Hopefully you can retrofit your old style knobs.

I heard this exact statement over a year ago on snipershide. I really hope it's true though.

Ive never looked at the knobs on Sightron scopes as to how they can be removed. But on some scopes such as at least (older)
Leupolds, the turret can be removed by loosening a few screws. A 12 gauge shotgun shell case is about exactly the same diameter
as the turret. A thin piece carved off and put on the turret, then replace the knob works fine. Bruce Baer is a well known long range
gun builder and also a stocking dealer for Nightforce and Schmit&Bender scopes. Not sure about the S&B but on most of the Nightforces
he sells he installs a zero stop for $35. You can send him your elevation knob only and he will install one for you. He has done hundreds
of them over the many years he has been involved with Nightforce scopes. He simply drills a small hole in the cap top and threads it for a small
brass allen head with a plastic tip. He includes the proper allen wrench. After the gun is zeroed, simply run the screw down till it just touches
without being tightened. Walla, zero stop. I think the factory version is about $300.
