What can you do? Try to find a server or two with a round trip delay

It may not be possible to find better servers than the ones you are
using; good servers are in short supply! If you really need, or want,
precise time you could do as I and many others have done; buy a GPS
timing receiver and operate your own stratum one server. Or try a
better internet connection.
What about configuring (3) from the pool (as he's doing) and picking one
from the Stratum 2 listing over at ntp.isc.org? That would give a
pretty good handpicked server combined with 3 random servers from the pool.

(Being careful to follow the access policy and rules of engagement, of
course.)
A good approach. The pool seems to have been intended to be used in
much this way; to supplement your carefully chosen servers.
