Ripp,
While it is true that the high quality SWAROVSKI products are very widespread, it does not mean that they are optically the best for all their models.
In terms of pure optic I think that ZEISS, with its Victory HT series, produces the best scopes. Alas their range of models is reduced and they do not offer an equivalent to the Z5.
Currently the Z3 and Z5 are made in the USA but their quality remains good enough for mountain hunting.
Regarding binoculars I believe that the ZEISS Victory SF 10x42 is the best optical instrument of its kind presently offered on the market, but for weight and size reasons I prefer to use either the LEICA 10x32 HD+ or the SWAROVSKI 10x32 EL as in mountain we does not need a very large objective lens diameter, the brightness being sufficient.
Regarding the McMillan "Edge" stock, I think that it is excellent even if it absolutely need perfect pillar bedding. I also prefer the type of epoxy finish we use, that is stronger than their original paint.

93mouse,
Do not get me wrong, I like as much chamois as isard, although I consider that the isard is more stylish, slimmer and much livelier than the chamois.
Instead of being uniformly black, his coat is a color mixing from dark gray to light brown with a beautiful beige scarf behind the neck and shoulders.
