Are all RG8s created equal?

I'm about to put up a V2000 6m/2m/70cm antenna. I've used 9913 in the past
for 2m, but it's awfully stiff and expensive. I'm thinking of going with RG8
or a variant of RG8. Are they all the same? I want to minimize loss of
course. Recommendations?

BTW, what does the RG number signify anyway? The size? The construction?
