Pre-Celtic/Pictish - I2a2
Celtic/Belgic - R1b (L21, P312*, S28)
Roman - R1b-S28, J2, E, G2a
Anglo-Saxon - R1b-S21, I1, I2a2
Vikings - I1, R1b-S21, R1a
Normans - R1b (L21, S28, S21, P312*), I1
A better description for R1b among the Vikings is just R1b as there are a lot of R1b-P312/S116 types in Scandinavia too. See the Old Norway Project.

Steve Harding presented this chart.
You'll notice that the smaller pulled out pie charts are the R1b breakdown. U106 is the green and you can see there are P312 types (U152/S28, P312/S116, L21/S145, M167/SRY2627) are the majority of the R1b at many of the locations, including Skarabourg, Sweden.
Therefore, it is likely there were some P312 types with Scandinavian raiders/Vikings.
