Ok, I thought you were talking about the rear action screw, not the trigger guard screw. You're right, you don't need that kind of torque on the trigger guard screw. Personally, I don't tension the trigger guard screw because it won't really effect the action itself.
I typically loosen the trigger guard screw slightly as I re-install the action bolts, and tension all 3 screws at the same time. I run the screws in all together, torquing each bolt a little at a time to keep the action tension balanced as they go in, and I like to keep the trigger guard screw proportionately balanced at the same time. Your action bolt torque routine might be different than mine, but whatever works for you is fine.
