According to Chuck Gawks they started making the 17 wsm in 2017.
30/30 Winchester: Not accurate enough fer varmints, barely adequate for small deer; BUT In a 10" to 14" barrelled pistol; is good for moose/elk to 200 yards; ground squirrels to 300 metres

The 2017 thru the current
2020 catalogs display and once again lists the rifle as the Hunter
Rimfire in .22LR, .22WMR, .17HMR and .17WSM, but all the listed
chamberings were or are not available every year. The current
rifles have an ejector with a case deflector. From 2014 to 2020 the
MSRP has remained at $1,469.99. mine has the case deflecter
