Electric.

I may cast sinkers with a burner, but I need controlled temp for sharp mould fill-out/quality bullets (and that temp's different for pure lead vice various alloys.)

BTW: I started casting back in the late 60's on the kitchen stove.
My wife still talks about the lead splatters on that Wherry Housing ceiling.

She laughs... now.
