An AK-47 can put a bullet through a 1/4 inch thick part of titanium, so anything around 2 inches or thicker should stop a bullet, it depends on how powerfull the gun is, but the thicker the titanium the better, if i wanted a sheet of bulletproof titanium i would make it at least 5 inches thick if not 6 inches.

Can a magnet deflect a sniper rifle bullet?

No, not even a rare earth magnet could deter the path of a high velocity bullet. If the bullet hits the magnet then in would go in to a depth depending on caliber and range then stop just like if it hit any metal. Most bullets are made of lead and copper, and are not affected by magnets.

Will a magnet stop a bullet?

Noop. Even if you had a bullet that was attracted to a magnet (like an iron bullet), it would have too much kinetic energy to be effected. I guess if you had a really big and thick magnet, it could stop a bullet, just like a book can sometimes stop a bullet. This has nothing to do with magnetism, but just the interaction of mass.
