Not sure but maybe the following would help:

tell application “System Events” to tell process “Finder”
	set frontmost to true

	keystroke “f” using command down — note lower-case not upper-case
	— or
	click menu item “Find” of menu 1 of menu bar item “File” of menu bar 1

end tell

I am finding that since about Lion that the use of system events has required more attention to timing issues, i.e., longer delays or more attention to repeat loops that target specific elements arriving or disappearing. I also seem to require more frequent use of bringing the targeted app to the front.
