EDIT: Wikipedia says "Countersink cutters are manufactured with six common angles, which are 60°, 82°, 90°, 100°, 110°, or 120°, with the two most common of those being 82° and 90°. Countersunk-head screws that follow the Unified Thread Standard very often have an 82° angle, and screws that follow the ISO standard very often have a 90° angle."
So which do I need?

Well, do you now the CSK angle of the screw head? that would be the answer
I wouldn't worry too much about pressure angles unless the tensile load is extreme. If you want to be certain, bed the screws in with epoxy - this will allow mirrored pressure angles
