I had a look at the Scandinavian Y-DNA Project (essentially Sweden and Norway) and Denmark DNA Project at FTDNA and counted the members for each subclade of R1b, eliminating members of non-Scandinavian origin and duplicates.
Within the P312* in the first project I managed to identify 2 haplotypes matching the North-South cluster (DF27) and 2 matching the Norse cluster (L238). I didn't include M269 members who weren't tested for deep subclades so as not to disrupt the balance.
There is about 30% of R1b in Scandinavia, so multiply the percentages by 0.3 to get the frequency in the whole population.

I listed 111 R1b individuals in total.
P312 and its subclades make up 55% of all Scandinavian R1b, enough to break the stereotype that U106 is the only Germanic branch of R1b. Naturally a lot of L21 could be attributed to Irish and Scottish slaves brought by the Vikings, but that cannot explain all subclades.
L238 appears to be almost exclusively of Scandinavian origin (more so than U106) and is indeed referred to as the Norse cluster of R1b by Ken Nordtvedt. All the L238 members at FTDNA are located in south-west Sweden (around Gothenburg).
It's harder to explain how so much U152 got to Scandinavia. It might have come with Celtic northward migrations during the Bronze and/or Iron ages, and/or with migration from (southern) Germany since the Middle Ages. The U152 members at FTDNA are concentrated in Denmark and along the Swedish-Norwegian border, in a straight north-south axis.
The P310/L11* individuals are all Danish, but perhaps just because nobody tested for this SNP in the Sweden-Norway project.
