Am looking for a recommended cover crop that will reliably winter kill here in zone 6. Heavy clay soil. Thanks!

Hello!
I think you will find this webpage interesting. For each of the crops, it gives information on growing conditions and whether they are winter-killed.
For example, while some varieties of Berseem Clover are more frost-tolerant than others, it will not survive winter.
