The title pretty much says it. Im looking for a led + reflector combo that provides excellent throw. I'm using Seoul P4 led. I know that Mcr19XR is designed for Cree XRE, but it is very deep reflector... So how to manipulate it to get good throw with Seoul P4?

To get the McR-19XR aligned with the Seoul P4, you will have to pull the LED well out of the reflector and you will loose unacceptable levels of light. The McR-19XR also has a very short focal length which is not ideal for maximizing lux. You will get much much better performance using a McR-20 with .030" removed from the rear or wait until you can get a McR-20-S reflector (on order). For even better throw, the McR-27L-J again with .030" removed from rear will do a better job but it's a larger reflector. There is a McR-27-S reflector not available yet which is the original 27L tuned for the Seoul P4.

The McR-19XR will give you a tight flood with the Seoul P4.
