ULA's record with its current generation of Atlas 5 and Delta 4 boosters is 83 successful launches and no outright failures.
This is an impressive reliability record, no doubt about it. However, it is fair to note that this is the "current generation" Atlas and Delta. The first Atlas was used during the Mercury program, so they've had more than 50 years of design refinement to get to that point.
