If for higher performance, you can apply refinemask with maximum output size 28 to the first two stages of HTC, and refinemask with maximum output size 112 to the last stage of HTC. You may need to set the loss weight of each stage on your own situation.

Can refinemask be used with mask scoring? Have you done a similar experiment?

Sure, it can be used with mask scoring. Please refer to the solution of the winner of the LVIS Challenge 2020. And the result of Table 10 in our paper (RefineMask) is got by applying RefineMask to this solution.
