Looks like with the 140 XTP out of a 16 you can be plus or minus 2 in out to 125 yards so I would agree.
Energy at that range is still double the muzzle energy of a 9 mm pistol so there is that.
I would really read up on anything other than the Henry's if you're looking new. There's a lot of reports of problems with recent Rossi's such as plastic followers and MIM. I know the older ones can be quite good values.
I love savage 99s, but they can also be finicky and are also getting expensive.
I guess our definition of survival rifle varies... You could do worse but it wouldn't be my first pick. As much fun as they are.
