We study gauge mediation of supersymmetry breaking in SU(5) supersymmetric grand unified theory with gauge fields as messengers. The generated soft supersymmetry breaking parameters lead to close to maximal mixing scenario for the Higgs mass and highly reduce the fine tuning of electroweak symmetry breaking. All gaugino, squark and slepton masses are determined by one parameter – the supersymmetry breaking scale. The characteristic features are: negative and non-universal squark and slepton masses squared at the unification scale, non-universal gaugino masses, and sizable soft-trilinear couplings. In this scenario, all soft supersymmetry breaking parameters at the unification scale can be smaller than 400 GeV and all the superpartners can be lighter than 400 GeV and still satisfy all the limits from direct searches for superpartners and also the limit on the Higgs mass. The lightest supersymmetric particle is gravitino or a sizable mixture of bino, wino and higgsino. We also consider a possible contributions from additional messengers in vector-like representations, and a contribution from gravity mediation, which is estimated to be comparable.
