Using Marty's basics, a 275 XY-wing leads via more basics to:

Where an 89-7 XY wing leads to -7r5c1 stte. Interestingly(?), both XY-wings are
in the less common rectangle formation.....Of course I may have missed the
killer one-stepper...

The 27-5 was a one-stepper for me. However, I was doing it with pencil and paper, where my error rate is very high. I'll accept your solution.
