This is about the size of my wallet when in its holster, and it is designed to be shot while in the holster, which looks like a wallet...

I like this gun (or similar) and much of the rationale for a CC weapon (a bigger one for home protection). That said, I personally would not be using any "special" bullets that are designed to do "maximum damage to tissue" as I believe that would put me in a very poor position with regards to the inevitable lawsuit after punching a few holes in the offending party. He or his family might end up with all of your money anyways. I would use whatever the police use in my local area (maybe the ones you named?).
IMHO, if the first bullet does not have the desired effect, pump a couple more into the same general area.
