It is extremely difficult to find a good niche for a starting weapon. We all know that short range weapons are terrible at start and even the 860 range of basic cannon is a risky pick. 950 range weapons are already possible at start for some tanks with 1.5k and 2k gold (and they are not so different from basic magic). Longer range already exists as well for 2k and a 1k gold 1300 range weapon would deal very little damage (~50 dps) and be useless. I don't see a good spot for a new ~1k starting weapon right now. Maybe a 1050 range one, but that brings the risk of becoming the new Basic Magic, so it would need some drawback. Perhaps not having an upgrade at all or so.
