You'll probably need to go used. Circle Y, Textan, Billy Cook, and all of the other big names make 17" saddles. If you want new, you might email Kevin at Southern Trails Saddlery. He has a nice line of reasonably priced American made saddles and most can be made in a 17" seat.

I just sold a 17" Circle Y trail saddle, 1989 model for $500, shipping and saddle pad included. You should be able to find a used saddle in your price range.

Or for new saddles, check out the selection in a 17" here:
Western Saddle, Trail Saddles, Trail Saddle, Gaited Saddles
These are quality, American made saddles.
