Then the outflow valves on the
individual passengers might shift to full-open....

The pressurization on jet aircraft is controlled by
an outflow valve on the outside skin of the fuselage.
The engines supply a constant flow of bleed air mostly
dependent on engine power setting. The out flow valve is
about one square foot in size and usually is only about
1/3 closed. One bullet hole wouldn't affect the system
in any observable (out flow valve position gauge ) way.
Hope that helps.
