Military speak:
Carbines, 20" or less (Mosin M38, Enfield No5 Jungle carbine)
Short rifles, Typically 26" or less. (1903, Mauser 98k, Enfield SMLE)
Long rifles, usually 28" or more. (Mauser 98, Arisaka Type 38, Schmidt-Rubin 1911)
I know, what happens between 26" and 28". All I can say is most Mosins, Russian, Soviet and Finnish fall in this slot.
