The first behavior you said seems pretty normal. My dear rattie Algernon does that all the time.
The second one is also normal. My feisty girl, Felicity, charges dogs and cats regardless of whether or not the animal is afraid of her. This behavior is super dangerous as the dog or cat can easily fight back and harm the rat.
As for snoring. My heart rattie, Algernon has the same problem. He has the same problem as many squished face dogs- an elongated soft palette. I took Algernon to the vet, and the doctor said that that his soft palette is so long that it flaps when he breathes. This makes the snoring sound. Sometimes, even when they're awake. I would take him to the vet just in case.
I have never had any of my rats blindly jump off of things, but my girls used to jump off of things onto my shoulder or hand You could probably train your boys to do that instead. idk
Are you raising your boys right? If you think you are, then you are. They seem well behaved and lovely if they crawl into peoples laps. Good job!
