Close but ... Remington has problems too but the two weapons are nothing alike here is the bolt-face for the 700... notice the lugs and extractor pin??? Now here is the Ventures Bolt-face... three lugs almost the same you find on a Mauser style with the plunger type extractor... From what I've read so far the problem may lay in the set screw that's used to adjust trigger pull/weight...
