From The Master, about the version of Master from UNIT: Dominion:

"As of February 2013, we at Tardis are applying Occam's Razor, and simply going with release date. Since it was released long after the television movie, Dust Breeding and Master, we're assuming that it takes place afterwards.

But we don't know for sure how this Master fits into the puzzle. No one does. "

Well, we now know that Beevers is the Master directly after the TV Movie in "Mastermind". And by release date, this is the latest version of Master at Big Finish. Given this, and the fact that the Master's and the Doctor's timelines are always (or nearly always -perhaps there are some exceptions) in sync in their televised appearances, I'd say Occam's Razor would actually be putting the McQueen Master after "Dust Breeding" and "Master" - that is, in release order for encounters with a given incarnation of the Doctor, but before TVM.
