Buy a set of left handed drill bits and an automatic center punch.
Make a center guide hole to keep your bit in the middle, then just start with a small bit and go up sizes. Since the drill bits are left handed, your drill spins counter clock wise, so you have a good chance that the bit will catch and back the bolt out. If it doesn't, you at least made a hole for something like a bolt extractor set.
But by drilling the center out, you're releasing the tension on the threads, so as you go up in sizes on the left handed bits, you should have a good chance of unscrewing this.
You could also prep this thing by putting a few drops of penetrating oil and leaving it overnight to get into the threads.
I can't seem to find a full set of Irwin's carbide bits, they only seem to have packs of the same size, but a multi size pack exists so look around for that. It goes up in sizes from like 5/16" to like a quarter inch. You should get a few of the small bits as they are easy to break.
