The extents of the resistor symbol snap to the grid not the center of it. If the grid isn't congruent with the symbol then the legs don't end up on grid intersections, but the centers l of the peaks may do. However, a line end point - bezier, zzline, polyline line, all will snap to the leg end if you hover for the fraction of a second near it.
You can size a resistor and grid to be congruent as you wish. If you get a resistor the way you like it, you can then group it so it isn't immediately editable without ungrouping. Then copy it repeatedly as needed.
