Depends on the sniper and the rifle. Add about 15-20 inches to the barrel length, same as any other rifle.
The Remington 700 action used to be very common and probably still is. Barrel lengths are about the same as any varmit rifle, from 20-26 inches roughly. Contrary to popular belief, a longer barrel will not make your rifle more accurate, and people who shoot for a living should be aware of this fact. That is not to say that if you go and buy a Remington 700 from Walmart and stick a powerful scope on it that you have a sniper rifle (actually, by military designation and modern rifles, you might). Usually special care is taken and the common varmit components are changed, the barrel is one upgrade that is helpful for making a rifle more accurate. Other things, like bedding the action and floating the barrel are almost requirements for a competition rifle, and a non-reflective coating on the objective lens is probably an essential for a sniper.
In short, to answer your question though, 35-45 inches. The .50BMGs are probably the same length but I don't know too much about them. Same as a varmit rifle.

A sniper is an individual who is highly skilled in shooting and marksmanship, specializing in long-range precision shooting. A sniper rifle, on the other hand, is the firearm or weapon that a sniper uses. It is specifically designed to be accurate and effective at long distances, often equipped with a telescopic sight and other features to enhance accuracy and stealth.
buy one of those long ranged rifles and then poof... you're a deadly sniper.
It is believed that sniper rifles were invented around 1857 with the advent of the Enfield rifle. This rifle was then surpassed by the Whitworth rifle which became the first long range sniper rifle.

A "sniper rifle" is simply a rifle employed for that purpose. So long as the "sniper rifle" meets the criteria and restrictions for hunting firearms in the state you're hunting in, you can use it.
The correct term is cartridge- which is the cartridge case, primer, powder, and bullet. A sniper rifle is simply an accurate, long range rifle that is used by a sniper. It may look exactly like my long range hunting rifle- since most military sniper rifles BEGAN as a civilian hunting weapon.
