    when i move the item it keeps snapping a bit outside the start of the bar each time

    i need the end of the item to snap but it keeps staying outside the bar

    Right click on the Snap item at the top (horseshoe), a bit below the center 'Media items snap at:' set to 'Snap both start/end'

    It looks like it is snapping to the grid and the grid is set up per measure.

    ... are something completely different. You need them to stretch audio files automatically, AFAIK.

    You're sure your item has a snap off-set?? I don't think so.
