Search Function!

[gunfan2]

Anyone know what's going on with the search function here, can't get it to respond to any wording?

I won't pretend to understand how this search engine works but I have determined the search requires an unspecified number of letters and/or characters. too few letters or numbers and no results. Unfortunately that often means using two or more words resulting in unrelated search results. A perfect example is I'm looking info on a 45-70, I get no results when I know and see 45-70 used in posts and titles all over the place. A wee bit frustrating.

Here is a discussion thread in the "frequently asked questions" area:

edit: I just did a couple searches and it worked as usual.

It isn't working for me either. Tab comes up saying The information you entered on this page will be sent over an insecure connection and could be read by a third party. Are you sure you want to send this information Continue/Cancel. Neither gets the search done.

I have resorted to going to google and inputting "castboolits." or "castboolits.gunloads and what ever I'm looking for. IE. "castboolits.gunloads" henry 357

Cool, that worked on google (although I'm trying to avoid google), and it also worked on DuckDuckGo.
