The general consensus from what I'm aware of is that Viking is as good a term as any for a relatively well understood historical culture group because Germanics is too broad, Norse too specific, and Scandinavian either includes or excludes Sami and Finns unfairly depending on how you look at it.
Bingo. Loosely defined and notably not all Norse cultures.
