Turning the screw into a fladhead screw is probably your best bet. I do this to every screw that has a hex head because I always end up stripping them.
If you have a dremel with a circular bit then you can start off the cut and use that slot with a flathead to get it out, then finish it off with the dremel or a saw. You could also use Light's suggested way of gluing a screwdriver to the screw to get it out, snap it off, then saw or dremel in the slot for a flathead.
Then I guess you could try that gluing the screwdriver in trick. Try a glue that will hold it down but will snap somewhat easily like super glue. If that doesn't work, then you can borrow a dremel from a friend.
If the problem is the bb stopper, you can get them for cheap at evike and (I think) ASGI. I wouldn't doubt it has wear on it because the sharp edge of the metal piston nozzle has to push past the plastic bb stopper to get a seal on the bucking. Over time that will cause a lot of wear.
The bucking wouldn't cause it to double feed. My next best guess would be the mag. Open it up and clean and lube it. Just make sure to find a video on how to open it up because I heard it is a PITA to get back together without instructions, although I could be wrong.
