NL50 - I opt for strange line, get strange action. Now what?

I was actually MP in this hand, and just made up a hand for BB. Here is the actual hand.

Final Pot: $75

My impression is that 2+2 types are c/r'ing with, say, a set pretty rarely on this kind of board. And I also thought this kind of line was weird with AK - I would have expected either a reraise preflop, or a flop lead instead. The c/r line seemed designed to shut down action, and so I decided to run a big bluff on the turn.

So, the real question, I guess, is how often are people c/r'ing (other than as a semibluff) against thinking opponents?

I do it often. I don't play 50NL but I guess the players there don't do it often. I think you run in AK/sets more often than a bluff here. A 2+2 is probably trickier though.
