If you want, you can do it in less than 2500 feet according to Lockheed: https://www.lockheedmartin.com/cont...in/aero/documents/C-130J/C130JPocketGuide.pdf
But if you are crazy enough, you can do even better: Throwback: When The US Navy Landed A Lockheed C-130 Hercules On An Aircraft Carrier.
Depends on the windspeed too - a 40 knot carrier heading into the wind.
Or landing at Lethbridge on any given day. Currently we're at about 80 km/h.
