Yes - you can use pickling salt to brine turkey. The main difference between pickling salt and other salts are grain size and iodine. Table salt has iodine, pickling salt does not. The iodine is only added to table salt to add that nutrient to our diet; it has no effect on brining turkey - it doesn't hurt but it doesn't help. Pickling salt is also very fine-grained, to speed up dissolving in water to create a brine, so it is useful for solutions needing salt. Typically it is even finer grained than table salt and much finer than rock salt or kosher salt. When you think about it, canning salt really is designed for brining processes so not only CAN you use it to brine turkey - it would probably be the PREFERRED type of salt to use to brine turkey.
Kosher in pickles means the brine contains garlic and pickling spices.
