A Ruger rocket would launch every time, and be dead on the correct orbit. You just might have to lean on the launch button kinda hard.

FAILURE: Orbital Taurus rocket fails NASA’s Glory spacecraft

March 3rd, 2011 by William Graham

Orbital’s Taurus launch vehicle finally lifted off with NASA’a Glory spacecraft – at 10:09am GMT Friday morning - after being rescheduled due to a scrub during its original February launch attempt. However, the vehicle’s aim to deploy the Glory environmental satellite for NASA, plus three university CubeSats, via a launch from Launch Complex 576E at the Vandenberg Air Force Base in California, failed when the fairing surrounding the payload failed to separate.

I was going to say, don't at least 50% of those rockets blow up?

Only after it's been recalled once or twice by the factory, especially if it's a new kind of rocket.

Everybody knows that you need to wait a few years for Ruger to work the kinks out of their newest rockets
