bring another job offer to your boss. Either he sweetens the deal (or even matches) or you walk .

I’ve done this a few times. And every time I’ve been told “Well we were about to give you a big raise. Poor timing on us but let me make up for it now and give you that raise”. If you want actual big % increase, you have to get another offer.
