I don't think you have the front end set correctly. It sounds like it is slightly off, and the screws are not going in straight and catching on the misalignment. There should be little to no resistance when tightening the screws.
You should probably take this to someone who knows what they're doing. For that screw to have stripped you either tried to continue tightening it after the driver started to slip, as Phillips head screws are designed to slip when over torqued, or you are using the wrong size driver for that screw. These are just the rudimentary basics of using a screwdriver. Save yourself the headache and the worry of ruining your parts and pay someone who knows what they are doing to put it together for you.
The screw can be removed with care and a pair of vice-grips. It will need replacing. Hopefully you did not damage the threads in the front-end.
