Raise by competent reg on ultra dry board

Hey,
imo this hand is pretty interesting , because it opens a lot of room for discussion what a raising range on this kind of boards could be.


No Limit Hold'em Tournament T50/T100
Buy-in: $20+$5+$2 USD Hold'em No Limit
PokerStars
9 players

Stacks:
UTG - UTG (T3.495)
UTG+1 - UTG+1 (T2.670)
UTG+2 - UTG+2 (T2.620)
MP - Hero (T3.090)
MP2 - MP2 (T3.225)
CO - CO (T2.630)
BTN - BTN (T2.825)
SB - SB (T3.440)
BB - BB (T2.985)

Preflop: (T150, 9 players) Hero is MP with Jh Ts
3 folds, Hero raises to T200, 2 folds, BTN calls T200, 2 folds

Flop: 7s 3d Kh (T550, 2 players - Hero: T2.890, BTN: T2.625)
Hero bets T200, BTN raises to T500, Hero calls T300

Turn: 6h (T1.550, 2 players - Hero: T2.390, BTN: T2.125)
Hero checks, BTN checks

River: 7h (T1.550, 2 players - Hero: T2.390, BTN: T2.125)
Hero bets T700

I make a standard C-bet (although I think it is too big on such a dry board) and the competent reg raises me. I think he will never raise his sets there and pretty much never his Kx hands, so his range should most likely consist of ??? If we were slightly deeper I suppose he could have 54,56,64 and 86 (all suited). Here it just looks like a cheap bluff to me or he is trying to level me with a set. I float and after the Turn goes check/check I am 100% sure he was bluffing and want to make him fold his Qx and Ax hands.

What do you guys think is a sensible raising range in that spot?
I will reveal his hand after later.
