12 - 15 lbs

Actually, modern-day .50 caliber sniper rifles are considerably heavier than the above quote (the above weight is typical for a 7.62mm or equivalent sniper rifle).

The "prototypical" 0.50 cal sniper rifle is the US's M82, made by Beretta. It weighs anywhere from 25 to 35 lbs, depending on model and attachments. Remember that a .50 cal (or 12.5mm) sniper cartridge is almost three times the volume, and five times the weight, as a 7.62mm cartridge, which means the rest of the rifle must be very significantly beefier than a 7.62mm rifle.
