Is Leupold missing a market with LPVO in 3-Gun?

Adam0321/0306

So I have always been more of a bolt gun guy. I have extensive experience with gas guns, but for recreational shooting, I prefer the bolt guns. However, i have recently started doing more action style 3-gun stuff and have found that I hate my Strike Eagle from Voretex that I currently have on one of my gas guns. I love Leupold scopes, but I have seen that they do not make a low power variable optic, such as a 1-6, that is not in excess of $1,000 dollars. Is this a market they are missing, or do they just not want to compete in a flooded market?

Any thoughts on this? I have a couple of VX freedom in the 1.5-4 range on slug and brush guns, but they are not suited well, or so it seems, for three gun type shooting.
 
they make a VX-5HD 1-5x24 in a few configurations for $1000, and I think there's a VX-6HD that is a bit over $1000.

Leupold seems very content to stay and thrive in the markets they're in. Like you said, that market is so flooded they probably don't feel like it's worth it.
