Pick up whatever your gun shoots best with. The whole "overkill" thing is a myth. I've seen .223 ballistic tips cause much worse pelt damage than 30-06 soft points. Whatever you shoot best in your rifle and are confident with is what you should use. Use some sort of decoy. A stuffed dog toy like a rabbit, squirel, or chipmunk on a wire hanger w/fishing line works great. You can tug it from your position and it looks real as can be. Don't over call, it needs to sound real.They will be hard to spot this time of year. I would take a 12 ga shotgun this time of year too for close-up shots loaded w/your favorite turkey load and an x-full choke. Be downwind, scent free, and use some sort of cover scent, and fully camoed out w/a facemask. It is alot of fun.
