First should be easy one I'm assuming the REM 700 308 or 3006 is fine for elk in the rockys of Colorado. Second were moving there well be done moving in the morning. So ill be applying for my carry permit. From what I read I can open carry till I get it and concealed in my car? Lastly once I get my permit do I have to conceal on my person as ok some states like Florida say so and it says conceal carry permit
