Can someone give me some search help?
I remember reading a response pertaining to a 9 mm, 147 grain, cast bullet using Power Pistol. I would like to revisit that post but the results I get, from using the search function, are many and not pertaining to what I’m looking for.

Thanks in advance for your help.

One might conclude that it is a common problem that no-one can solve. I know I find it a challenge and keep a note book of data to find articles of acute interest.

Your other option is to subscribe to the thread or set your profile to automatically join. Once you are done with the info you can use the Quick Link dropdown in the banner to control your subscriptions.

Is it this one?

I cheated, I use Startpage search and typed in "castboolits 147 gr 9 mm" it is the first link to popup. If you put the castboolits first it usually searches the forum first. If you use the advanced search you can sometimes find what you want, but my go to is to use an outside search engine first.

I use Startpage as my search engine as it gives you less ads then Bing or google fu and it is a private search no tracking.

That’s the reason I use DuckDuckGo.

No tracking like google spyware! They have a phone browser app too. Can even help with emails!

I have better luck using a search engine like Bing or Google and directing it to search this site:

castboolits 147 gr 9 mm site:gunloads.com

This is my technique as well.
.
I prefer google, yes there is no privacy, but with whatever info they have on me (with about 20 years of using their search engine) and use in the search algorithm with the keywords I type in, it just seems to read my mind to find what I am looking for. Also, google has some magic with spell check...correcting my typing.
