I have to remove the screw as well cannot just cut the flange off or the plate will not be flush against the lens base.

You may have to drill it out from the back side. Them type screws are made to be non removable. For those that do not know Ampros,the lens plates fasten to the front side of the mount flange of the lens.

I'd just slot it with a Dremel and use a regular flathead screwdriver to back it out.
Really, there's no need to even remove it. It's not like using just 7 out of 8 mounting holes is going to be a problem.

You have not seen an Ampro mounting plate. It HAS to be removed. The plate bolts to the FRONT of the lens mounting flange.

If you do not move it the mounting plate will not be flush and the lens will then be at a angle convergence will be even more impossible!
