C&V brakes

Sorry if this is a repeat thread, I just don't fine the search engine that good when looking through older posts. Just wondering what my options are for a set of brakes (rim obviously) for my small collection of 80's road bikes. All are Shimano components and have some 27" wheels and some 700c. Tires size is mostly 26mm to 30mm.
Looking for mid range price as none of these bikes are classics but would like to consider riding in winter conditions (minimal precipitation on the road) and want to know I can stop with confidence. Took one of the bikes out which had the worst set of brakes and could barely slow down.
