Jun 24, 2019 at 16:01 comment added zhoraster @D.Thomine, the problem is that the only viable bound I can obtain so far is for the variance, which is of order $1/n$. This gives, through Chebyshev's inequality, the estimate of the same order for the probability, so $R_n\gg n$ is, unfortunately, impossible.
Jun 23, 2019 at 21:19 comment added D. Thomine I'd look into concentration of measure. If the $X_t$ are close to being i.i.d. and the tails of $X_t$ are nice enough, you can get bounds such as $\mathbb{P} (|(2n)^ {-1}\int X_t - \mathbb{E} (X_0)| > \varepsilon) \leq C(\varepsilon, n)$, whence $\mathbb{P} ( \sup |(2n)^ {-1}\int X_t - \mathbb{E} (X_t)| > \varepsilon) \leq R_n C(\varepsilon, n)$. Then you only need to find $R_n$ such that $\lim R_n C(\varepsilon, n) = 0$ for all $\varepsilon$ to get convergence in distribution.
