To barrel or not? Live 1/2

Playing local 1/2 500 max buy.

Important history:
Hero is playing aggressive so far in relation to table.
Villain is young relatively tight player, but lost a large pot to Hero in the last hour where I spiked a gutshot vs his set for stacks. After reloading, he has obviously been playing more hands and seeing more showdowns.

H(BB) $400 - AdQs
V(UTG2) $400

UTG call $2, V raise to $5, CO Call, BTN Call, Hero Raise to $30, UTG Fold, V Calls $30, Co Fold, BTN fold.
Pot: $72

Flop: Ks 5c 2h

H Bet $45, V Calls.
Pot: $162

Turn: Td

H ???

Here is where im stuck. I know this player is a bit steamy right now so he may be calling me down with a pretty wide range. He isnt really the type to pull a big bluff, but I can see him stationing me with most 1 pairs here. He called quite quickly on the flop, so I can confidently put him on any Kx, 66-TT and maybe sometimes a hand like 56s/A5. Earlier when he had a Set vs me, he quickly raised it on a dry flop, so I dont expect to see many sets here.

So should i have AQo in my Triple barreling range here vs a player who has a pretty de-polarized range? Obviously picking up a GS on the turn is good for us, but any sizeable turn bet leaves with around $200-225 on the river with a $300+ pot.

My river plan was to shove a Jack and any card that doesnt pair the board, and try to showdown any Ace or Queen... is this line acceptable?
