I think that your overall lack of ap2 shooting is going to be troublesome. The vendetta are nice and are three shots a price, but you have to squadron them as allies so that is still only one target dead I would drop down to two and have better maneuverability as well as plenty of killing power.
I would use those points to try and add another lasplas razor back in.
The other big issue is that you have no close combat capability to speak of. Five man gh squads do nothing even with a pf wolf guard attached. Might as well drop them and add another hunter squad. That would at least give you four troop units. You'll probably have to trim some points elsewhere so play around with it some and see what you can come up with.

Just double checked the allied detachment rules i totally missread that part i didnt notice you can only have 1 fast attack slot, my bad. what do you think of maybe swapping out the vendetta for a medusa/maybe leman russ demolisher and maybe drop the wolf guard for marbo? That should help with the 2+ guys i meet.

Marbo could be a good choice with his demo charge.

You might also want to try something like this:

Primary Detachment
Rune priest

5 Grey hunters - melta gun
Razor back - twin linked lasplas

5 Grey hunters - melta gun
Razor back - twin linked lasplas

5 Grey hunters - melta gun
Razor back - twin linked lasplas

6 longfangs - 5 missile launchers
Razor back - twin linked lascannon

6 longfangs - 5 missile launchers

5 longfangs - 4 missile launchers

Aegis defence line - Quad gun

Allied detachment
Primaris Psyker

PCS - autocannon
2 Infantry squads - 2 autocannons
Heavy weapons squad - 3 autocannons

PCS - autocannon, 2 x flamers
2 Infantry squads - 2 autocannons
Heavy weapons squad - 3 autocannons

1 Vendetta

1 Leman Russ Demolisher - Heavy Flamer, Heavy Bolter Sponsons

That puts you at 2k and still keeps the feel of your original list but with much more firepower. Anything that can get in your face quickly is going to be a problem, but you should be able to lay down some devastating firepower.
With psykic powers being so much more important now, I really like the primaris psyker as my guard hq. make sure and stick your rune priest in one of your platoons to give them ATSKNF and leadership 10.

Of course, this is YOUR list, so take this input and come up with somethig that YOU want to play.

I wouldn't give the wolf guard a powerfist.

If you are having IG blobs they could do with an IC marine to boost them. I think wolf priests with Saga of the hunter are currently the best option. I would even sacrifice the termy armour on the wolf guard to get this.

I would run CCS, PSS, vets in the vendettas. That should mean you can now have one huge blob with the priest.
