I don't know, what was the official designation, but when St.G was changed on 1943-10-17 loss reports (GQM) started to use Schl.G. Only after 1944-02-15 Schl.G was changed to SG.
Hopefully somebody could teach me the correct way to write that.
I have similar problems with military grades. For example Obergefreiter was at the beginning of the war Ogefr but later Ogfr. Similarly Oberleutnant was first Oblt and later Olt. Is there any official Luftwaffe (or Wehrmacht) document to clarify this.
