Anyone have experience with either company with rolling over their 401k into one of their precious metals IRA accounts? I have one from a previous employer i'm trying to find a home for and appreciate any anon inputs!

I haven't used either one... personally I would look into self directed IRAs and you can then invest in a variety of things... gold, silver, crypto etc. Let it all ride on GME if you're feelin lucky lol.
There are various custodian companies that will help manage it for you.
EDIT: the above is not financial advice, just my personal thoughts.
I do have a Fidelity account that I could do this with, but i'm still a bit leery of any broker, especially whenever it comes to real physical precious metals, and not just paper shares. I do hold GME and DJT, and want to put most of this 401k into metals.
This is an option I can go with, but would prefer a "safer alternative" without taking tax hits at the same time.
I wouldn't necessarily trust fidelity either.. I was thinking more along the lines of generic self managed custodians that will just generate the tax stuff for you and then you use any broker you want to execute trades, but that too comes with some risk since even if there is nothing wrong sometimes the IRS will look at you sideways just for having a non-standard setup and cause you expense for no reason. Its annoying, I know.
