I would go with the XM-L reflector. This is one thing I wish more P60 blanks would mention: what LED they are meant to work with.
XM-L, XP-G, XP-E, these all give about the same light distribution, while XR had a narrower output, more forward focused.

I'm building a convoy c8 with xml2 smooth reflector and fet direct drive. 
I had a sst 90 lined up for it, but I too wanted a bit more throw, so I went with a xml2 to reduce some of the pure floor of that monster led in a c8 head.

You might see if you can find one of those Convoy L2s. They look like they could accomodate an SST sized emitter. I bet it would throw fairly nicely with an XP series LED in there, even with an XM-L.
I like that the convoy series are available as hosts, though I haven't gotten to tear one apart myself, they look very nice compared to some more widely available host options.
