The Bowtech Core SR uses a Center Mass sight mount. Whether the CBE CX-5 fits, what version to order, and the trap.
Updated 05 September 2026.
Does the CBE CX-5 fit a Bowtech Core SR?
Not in the riser slot. The Core SR in-riser mount is Bowtech's Center Mass bar, not a dovetail, so the CBE CX-5 cannot use the slot. Mount the CBE CX-5 on the conventional side bracket holes instead.

Sight
CBE CX-5, a Bridge-Lock-capable dovetail sight
Whether the CBE CX-5 fits the Core SR comes down to its Center Mass sight mount.
The two ends
| Bow sight mount | Bowtech Center Mass through-riser sight bar (not a dovetail, not Picatinny) |
|---|---|
| Sight | CBE CX-5, a Bridge-Lock-capable dovetail sight |
| What to order | CBE CX-5 on the side bracket holes (the Center Mass slot takes only a Bowtech sight) |
| Trap | the Center Mass slot is not a dovetail and not Picatinny |
The Bowtech Core SR sight mount is a Center Mass interface, so whether the CBE CX-5 fits depends on the mounting bar, not the sight head.
The CBE CX-5 is a dovetail sight offered in a Bridge-Lock version, which is why it drops into a Mathews slot but needs a base change for a Picatinny rail and cannot use a Center Mass slot.
