AX308 barrel clamp and handguard screws

Anybody happen to know the size and thread pitch of these screws? One of my handguard screws is getting rounded in the Allen head slot and I figured I'd replace them with Torx screws before it gets stuck.

Thanks!

So, to update, I found the answer to at least the size of the handguard screws. Went to the Lowes and found they're M6-1.00 x 16. The screws I picked up are the same allan head size as the action screws, so it helps to be able to use my fix it sticks extended action ball head bit .

Haven't removed the barrel clamp screw since it says not to in the manual. Can anyone shed light on whether that's stated more for regular removal or if a quick switch would harm anything?
