Is it common for the bolt head to move much more freely than in a standard AR15 BCG?

Just got a Wolf A1 upper and noticed that the bolt head moves on the cam track with a lot less force than my DI rifles. Is this normal for the t91 BCG, is it because there are no gas rings?

You are correct, there's no gas rings, the bolt head movement does not restrict by them.

Ok, thanks follow up question, mine is a 14.5 inch upper and it has m4 feed ramps, do you know if that is a new addition. I recall hearing that these uppers don't have M4 feed ramps, but that was back when only the 16" uppers were available.

Original T91 does not have M4 feed ramps. Not sure why & when Wolf start adding them into their upper.
Do you mind share some photos of your 14.5" upper?
Thanks,

Oops just my bad eyes I guess, looked again and it is just standard rifle feed ramps.
