Nop, sorry.
It is the weak interaction with mass which is dominant.
The mass has nothing to do with it.
Look into Calusa/Clein theory of closed force.
It is the ease of interaction with external objects that determines veter
a force is strong or not.
As you know there are two local exchange particles W (strong force) and Z
(weak force, nuclear decay),
and two nonlocal forces electromagnetism (photon) and gravity (graviton).

For a more in depth discussion which is beyond our space here I suggest:

Quantum field theory by Lewis H. Ryder

Actually you got it exactly wrong. The particles move throgh a Higgs
field.
The mass of the particle is inversely proportional to the strength of
the
force. So a graviton is in fact the most massive particle there is.

Gee, is that why gravity has unlimited range?

Sounds like you're spouting bull****, Mr. Thingstad.
