and in addition remove the option "-r" from the rm command,
files aren't recursive...

And what about "-f"? This won't report any mistakes/errors.
So I would say remove it too and look for the output. (If
rm fails due to wrong permissions you won't recognize it.)
So finally use:

find /var/log/snort -atime +7 -type f -exec rm {} \;
