Stripper screw as in like... phillips/standard or stripped gas fitting? If it's a gas fitting I'd sudgest using your vise grips with a piece of rubber hose (like a piece of bike inner tube) between the tool and the metal and crank the grips down as hard as you can. If it's a screw, grab a dremmle and cut a notch in it for a standard and use a variable speed drill set on low to torque the thing out.
